Case 900, but with an unconditioned sun-space

Extends from Buildings.ThermalZones.Detailed.Validation.BESTEST.Cases6xx.Case600.

Information

This model is used for the test case 960 of the BESTEST validation suite. Case 960 is a two zones building, whereas the south-facing zone is an unconditioned sun-space.

Revisions

  • March 26, 2024, by Michael Wetter:
    Configured the sensor parameter to suppress the warning about being a one-port connection.
    This is for #3731
  • May 12, 2023, by Jianjun Hu:
    Added test acceptance criteria limits. This is for issue 3396.
  • September 16, 2021, by Michael Wetter:
    Removed assignment of parameter lat as this is now obtained from the weather data reader.
    This is for IBPSA, #1477.
  • October 9, 2013, by Michael Wetter:
    Corrected assignment of soil properties to avoid an error when checking the model in pedantic mode.
  • May 1, 2013, by Michael Wetter:
    Declared the parameter record to be a parameter, as declaring its elements to be parameters does not imply that the whole record has the variability of a parameter.
  • July 16, 2012, by Michael Wetter:
    First implementation.
