Horizontal shading devices (EnergyPlus/DesignBuilder)

1 post / 0 new

Dear colleagues,

I?ve heard that EnergyPlus v6 may have a bug to simulate horizontal shading
devices. Indeed, I was trying to simulate the impact of a shading device
using DesignBuilder and I noticed some critical inconsistencies in the
results.

I'd appreciate a lot if you could give me more information about the
magnitude and character of this calculation bug. I need to know more about
the limitations in the calculation so I can justify or not these
simulations in my PhD thesis.

Best regards,

Raoni Venancio
