My objective is to analyze a big room in different parts, but I think, I need an "imaginary" surface to do that.  Do you have any suggestion ?, thanks Regards, Francesco -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Therefore, you should create a "fictitious" construction that will have minimal impact on the heat transfer. In essence you should have a thin layer which is very conductive, no appreciable thermal mass, perfectly transparent and no solar absorption.  Details can be found in the FAQ on the website under "fictitious surfaces and zone subdivision".
