[TRNSYS-users] Import and re-connect different radiation data in TRNSYS 17

[David BRADLEY]

Giulia,
   There are two things that you need to do.

1. In TRNBuild, you need to go to the "project" window and double click 
on each of your ORIENTATIONS to make sure that each is set to 
"calculation of radiation data: external by another component" Once you 
have made the change, exit TRNBuild and when you are in the Studio, 
right click on the Type56 proforma and select "update building variable 
list." The Type56 INPUTs list should now include total radiation, beam 
radiation, and angle of incidence of beam radiation for each ORIENTATION 
in your building.
2. You need to use a Type16 in between your Type9 and your Type56 to 
take the raw solar radiation data from Type9 and compute the beam, 
total, and angle of incidence on all of the orientations in your 
building. I would recommend that you look carefully at the example 
located in:

..\Trnsys17\Examples\Reading Data Files\RadiationProcessing.tpf

Kind regards,
  David
