Re: [EnergyPlus_Support] Zone mean Radiant Temperature



You might plot your schedules on the other axis to see if it makes more since then.. Also if this is an exterior adjacent space than you might plot hourly solar gains.. I think what you want is to find the source of the temperatures, so you might experiment with output variables until you find curves that are similar.

Good day everyone,

I have a trouble with understanding of the graphs: Zone Mean Radiant Temperature (ZMRT) or Zone Operative Temperature(ZOT) in two zones.

I have 2 floor, 10 zones building. The output for some zone are great, for others quite weird.

In attached file you can see the graph of outdoor temperature, ZMRT and ZOT of kitchen- zone in the first floor. The graph looks like shark fin, temperature in the zone is super high - I guess its because of electrical equipment ( about 2kW). 

The other zone is also on the first floor, but graph has two hills. The decrease of temperature is understandable, but increase of temperature is not clear for me. Maybe it is affect from the top floor.

Is anyone have any explanation why is it this way? Any suggestion how to fix it?

Thanks for comments in advance!

Best regards, Veronika Shabunko
