[esp-r] Re: Please explain condensation report

[Abdul Rahim Bin Mahmood]

Hi David,

This result set describes the number of times surface condensation occurs
on each surface. In each time-step, the program indicates surface condensation 
occurrence if the surface temperature is lower than the internal air 
dew-point temperature. For example, if the time-step is 30 mins and there is 
surface condensation occurring for 4 hours, then the report will indicate 
that surface condensation occurs 8 times. The number of hours of occurrence 
is also reported (4 in this example).

Total occurrence is the number of times that surface condensation occurs 
within that zone. If condensation occurs at a number of surfaces at the same 
time, the report will only count it as one occurrence.

Regards,

Abdul Mahmood
