Re: [EnergyPlus_Support] Problem about a mirror fins





Did you use one of the options with reflections in the 'solar distribution' field in the 'Building' object?

Building,
    ExampleBuilding,       !- Name
    0.0,                     !- North Axis {deg}
    City,                    !- Terrain
    0.04,                    !- Loads Convergence Tolerance Value
    0.4,                     !- Temperature Convergence Tolerance Value {deltaC}
    FullExteriorWithReflections,            !- Solar Distribution
    40,                      !- Maximum Number of Warmup Days
    10;                      !- Minimum Number of Warmup Days

from I/O reference:

Surface Ext Beam Sol From Bm-To-Bm Refl From Obstructions [W/m2]
The solar beam radiation incident on the outside of an exterior surface that arises from beamto-
beam (specular) reflection from one or more obstructions. This value will be non-zero only
if ?Reflections? option is chosen in the BUILDING object. For windows, the program treats this
beam radiation as diffuse radiation in calculating its transmission and absorption.
