[esp-r] Re: Res "enquire about" energy balances and CFC

[Aizaz Samuel]

Bart and Achim,

>I don't have much experience with the "enquire about" options, but the detailed res output (temperatures, surface/ zone fluxes, heating/cooling, total solar entering from outside, >etc.) does take into account CFCs. I imagine that the aggregated output functions rely on these as well.

The three res streams of enquire about, graphical output and timestep listing all display the same data records held in the res file. So if one of these works then all should work (in principle)

Regards,
Aizaz

Hi Bart



thanks for the pointers. I had a lenghty "code browse session" and on the face of this agree with you that everything should be O.K.



We have results we do not understand at first (and first-and-a-half) glance. However, we will go back to these results and have another hard look at them.



Keep you posted.



Best

Achim

Hi Achim,

The following CFC outputs have been configured with res as of ESP-r 11.8:

- inside face convection
- inside longwave radiation
- outside face convection - outside face longwave radiation
- solar transmission
- solar absorption (careful with this one - it does not include all the transparent nodes, only the inside or 'other face' node)

The calculation of these fluxes is sensitive to the presence of a shade layer and the control state of that blind layer (retracted or deployed). You can find the CFC modifications to the standard energy balance in subroutine SURBAL (esrubld/blibsv.F).

I don't have much experience with the "enquire about" options, but the detailed res output (temperatures, surface/ zone fluxes, heating/cooling, total solar entering from outside, etc.) does take into account CFCs. I imagine that the aggregated output functions rely on these as well.

Regards,
Bart
