Re: [EnergyPlus_Support] Re: Thermal mass methods





If you are talking about building internal mass, then:

Version 7 Documentation:

InternalMass object, IO ref pdf page # 212
InternalMass in the context of building surface adiabatic boundary conditions, Eng Ref pdf page # 110

Thanks for reply. I did take a look at and searched through most of the Energy Plus documents available on the website. Although thermal mass and its applications in Energy Plus are repeatedly mentioned in these documents, I still could not find the basic fundamentals behind the consideration of thermal mass itself. The very basic methods that were used to introduce the concept of thermal mass in the Energy Plus program in the first place. Any help?
