ranges : when occupied

Post by floriane07 »

Hello,

I need to know the number of hours greather than 28 °C when the rooms are occupied.
When I tick "when occupied", i get different results that when i precise the time (for example 9h --> 18h everydays).
Where can I change the schedule "when occupied"?

Thank you

Regards

Hi,

I'm not quite sure what you mean. In the range test you can specify the number of hours over 28oC when occupied and it will sum the hours when occupancy is greater than zero and temp is over 28. You can't then apply a time range to this if that's what you mean.

If you want to control the number of occupied hours you can apply a weekly modulating profile to your People Gain (Internal gains tab of thermal template/room data).

Occupied hours have been added to the IESVista module for a while now.
If you don't trust it or want to do more then pop it out to excel - the more time you spend in IES the more time you'll spend in Excel is what I've found.
