Re: [EnergyPlus_Support] FullInteriorandExterior working with non-convex zones???





If you want to be exhaustive about this, you would create several models (convex and non-convex) and then compare results.  I believe I did something like that when I created the example file called Flr_Rf_8Sides.idf and there were minimal differences.

I wonder if a model is more "accurate" if it is convex and uses FullInteriorAndExteriorWithReflections, but must simply geometry in order to do so- or if a model is more accurate if it is drawn as realistically as possible resulting in non-convex zones with FullExterior.  I think that it is more accurate to model with convex and uses FullInteriorAndExteriorWithReflections but am curios what others think.Â
