[TRNSYS-users] Solar gains in Type 12c building

Clara,
  Neither of the simple building models (Type12 or Type88) account 
directly for solar radiation gains through windows. In order to account 
for these gains you would need to use a window model (such as Type35 or 
Type687) to account for solar gain and then add those gains into the 
building model using one of the available gain inputs.
Kind regards,
  David
