Hi Vinu,
-
You could create a CSV schedule for 24 hours and then only that run that period in the Run EnergyPlus component using the analysisPeriod input and the _AnalysisPeriod component. I think that would be the best way to do it.
-
The file attached is the example file for the Set EP Air Flow component from the Honeybee example files. Have a look at it.
-
The details of this can be found in the EnergyPlus documentation specially the Engineering reference.

- I’d suggest that you check the EnergyPlus documentation, on this but my suggestion is:
A. For windows use the Set_EP Air Flow component set the temperature so that the windows will never been closed due to temperature , and then set your own schedule using openingAreaFractionalSched_.
B. Use the Shade generator component with a custom blindsSchedule for the blinds.
Regards,
Anton
