Custom schedules for towers

I love the auto-zoning feature in HB which generates floors and perimeter zones for you. It works well for towers. Now I am trying to figure out how to assign daysim dimming schedules I generated for a single floor, 5 zone model, to the North, East, West and South zones of the tower without having to list out each zone on each exposure and pass it through a schedules assignment component. Any efficiencies here? Many thanks again.

Arpan,

Can’t check right now but i would look for the HB_separateZonesByOrientation component.

If none of the zones has windows in two different directions then Abraham’s solution should work perfectly.

Hi Mostapha,

Of course.

Wish: Check which orientation has the biggest window so it will be the orientation choosen (or the sum of the areas of the windows in that wall).
