[EnergyPlus_Support] Re: design builder inter block partition

E+ for the same partition define 2 different code name, es: P_85227_7_0_0 and P_87034_27_0_10037, I do not know which one to use to get output: surface inside temperature and surface outside temperature

> An Inter-block partition surface is the shared partition wall between 2 zones in different blocks. Inter-block partition surfaces are generated whenever 2 blocks touch along a plane. They are listed in the Navigator twice, once in each of the 2 zones in which they appear. They are however a single partition object within DesignBuilder and in the thermal calculations. So if, for example, you change the Partition construction model data for an inter-block partition (or draw windows) the change will also be reflected in the equivalent inter-block partition surface in the adjacent zone.
