[EnergyPlus_Support] Re: wrong temperatures-Help



The user has 3 mm single pane float glass with no lowE. I scanned the idf and found infiltration schedules but no infiltration objects. I suggest to add infiltration on a per outside wall area basis. Use the BLAST coeff described in the io ref to account for infiltration due to the dPs caused by high inside outside temperature differences. As your facility has no HVAC that I saw, I suggest that a user in a glass box house will sweet at 15 deg C outdoor temp because it will get very warm (think of your car that has lowE glazing). They will open windows to ventilate. You need to also include this for realistic results.

May I ask what this building is, new or existing?
