IES-VE User Forum

Hi,

What exactly does the furniture factor do and how should i use it for? Is there a table of typical values anywhere?

Thanks

Hi,

Have a look at the Apache View User Guide for definition of the Furniture Mass Factor input. ApacheSim Calculation Methods includes a section called Air Mass and Furniture Modelling which will give you a good insight into what it does.

Remember all User Guides are available via the help menu in VE >> User Guides option

Phil

thank you

Hi,

Just to further the question about furniture factor. The default in IES is 1.00, can anyone tell me what 1.00 actually means?
Does it represent 100% or is it a multiplication factor? or what is it?

I would very much appreciate any information i can get.

Thanks in advance,
David Breen
