Buildings.ThermalZones.Detailed.Validation.BESTEST.Cases6xx.Case610
Case 600 with south shading
Information
This model is the case 610 of the BESTEST validation suite. Case 610 differs from case 600 in that the window has an overhang.
Implementation
Two overhangs have been added, one for each window, because each window only sees its own overhang.

Buildings.ThermalZones.Detailed.Validation.BESTEST.Cases6xx.Case640
Case 600, but with heating schedule
Information
This model is used for the basic test case 640 of the BESTEST validation suite. Case640 is the same as Case600, but with the following modifications:
- From 2300 hours to 0700 hours, heat = on if zone temperature is below 10°C
- From 0700 hours to 2300 hours, heat = on if zone temperature is above 20°C
- All hours, cool = on if zone temperature below 27°C
- Otherwise, mechanical equipment is off.
