MRT Surface - [source code]

Mesh Breps into a tagged radiation surface for an MRT analysis.

Input

Name Nickname Description
Geometry G Surface geometry to mesh.
Type T Surface type: 0 Building, 1 Ground, 2 Vegetation, 3 Tree.
Simulated S True if the surface temperature is solved; false treats it as ambient.
Patch Size P Target mesh patch edge length (m) for view-factor resolution.
Mat Optional material from a Surface / Vegetation / Tree Settings component; overrides the default reflectance / Radiance material for this surface.
Tsrf Optional fixed surface temperature (°C) for the longwave MRT — one value (held all year) or an 8760-hour series. When set, this surface uses the given temperature instead of the EnergyPlus solve or ambient (overrides Simulated). Leave empty to keep Simulated/Ambient.

Output

Name Nickname Description
Surface S Tagged radiation surface for the MRT component.
Mesh M The meshed surface (preview).
