[EnergyPlus_Support] Re: Outputs for windows are doubled





Hi Bill,

It looks like you are outputting the variable "Surface Window Total Glazing Layers Absorbed Solar Radiation" for each window. The two windows you mention have VERY similar names, but are different:

The windows are both within the same wall of the same zone, which is why the initial "ZN001WALL001" for both output is the same. The easiest way to double-check this is to open the IDF in the Legacy OpenStudio plug-in for SketchUp and look at the geometry of the model. 

To make post-processing easier, you can manually alter the names of the window surfaces to be shorter either in the SketchUp plug-in, IDF Editor, or a text editor with the IDF file directly. The SketchUp plug-in is the best method to apply a new naming convention to windows, in my opinion, because you can see window placement and orientation if you include that info in window names.
