[EnergyPlus_Support] Ventilated ST and PV panels



On the roof of the building that I'm modeling there are solar thermal and photovoltaic panels. They are installed in the same way, from the top towards the bottom: PV panel or ST panel, wood panel, ventilated air cavity, insulation, internal plaster. 
I read that for PV panels there is the possibility to use SurfaceProperty:ExteriorNaturalVentedCavity and to impose the Field "Heat Transfer Integration Mode" of the object Generator:Photovoltaic equal to IntegratedSurfaceOutsideFace, but how could I model the presence of the wood panel between the PV panel and the ventilated air cavity? And what about ST panels?
With Regards
Francesco Passerini
