Johannes,
   Type19 (and Type56 as well) refer to all surfaces as "walls." You can 
define roofs in Type19; they act as walls that have a horizontal (or 
non-vertical sloped) orientation. However, I would recommend that you 
use Type56 in place of Type19. The TRNBuild and Trnsys3D interfaces make 
the specification of the thermal zone a great deal easier and also allow 
you to define a wider array of wall constructions than does Type19. It 
probably doesn't affect modeling of a cold-storage room but Type56's 
window model is also a great deal more sophisticated than the one in Type19.
Kind regards,
  David
