Re: [EnergyPlus_Support] Fenestration ratio by jEPlus



Window to wall ratio can be possible using the window multiplier-this can be used to multiply the windows start with a window at say 30% WWR, then use search string like @@WWR@@, for discrete parametrics like {.33,.67,1,.1.3,1.67,2,2.33,2.67,3}
Also you could use zone multipliers to multiply to copy your zone, or geometry transform for aspect ratio, or use local shading for window shades.

Hello,

I'm using jEPlus for a parametric study. For wall and slab thicknesses' variations, I put related search strings under corresponding materials in the .idf files and it works just fine; however, for window-to-wall ratio, I just don't seem to find where to place its search string. In other words, in the .idf files, where could I change the window-to-wall ratios?

Another question, if I had the whole building model as a parameters and wanted to see the impact of diffident interior layouts, e.g, on building energy performance, how could I use jEPlus for this task?

Many thanks
