External Shading Device

[apsantos]

Hi,

Just to contextualize, my buinding has a glazing added by percentage wall area and i have different percentage in different floors.

I added an external shading device louvre with the limits: to lower 300 W/m2 and to raise 275 W/m2 and also transmission factors of 0.3.

Then, i runned the apache simulation and the lighting gain, on the floor that has less % of glazing, it is lower than the floor that has 90% glazing of wall area.

Sorry for my english. I hope you can understand my ploblem.

if i understood correctly, you have lower external heat gains in the floors with lower glazing percentage? If that is the case, then this is perfectly normal...
