[EnergyPlus_Support] Using HAMT model




Hello,
So I was trying to use HAMT for moisture calculation in a single zone model consists of two sub-zones separated by a virtual wall (I used Material:InfraredTransparent object to accomplished this). Since this virtual wall is not a real wall and it is only there to separate my initial zone into two subzones due to their thermal load differences.
For exterior walls, floor, and roof I used the MoistureMaterials.idf in Reference DataSets. However, when I got to specify the moisture settings in MaterialProperty:HeatAndMoistureTransfer for the Virtual Wall that used IR Transparent Object as said, I had repeatedly severe errors in the ouput. Below is the severe error:
 ** Severe  ** InitCombinedHeatAndMoistureFiniteElement: Construction=AIR WALL
 **   ~~~   ** Reference Material="IRTMATERIAL" is too thin.
Note: Air Wall is my construction object for the virtual wall that used IRTMaterial specified in Material:InfraredTransparent
It looks like the problem is with the thickness of the IRMaterial. But I have no option to change the thickness of it in Material:InfraredTransparent.
Any suggestions or comments will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Long
