How to create a monthly bar chart for an output variable for the entire building?

May I ask how to create a monthly bar chart for an output variable for the entire building that is not colored by zone?

For the bar chart of the monthly cooling loads by zone as shown below, how to merge the two zones’ data into one bar?

Thanks!

… or even merge monthly data for different zones and output variables altogether? Thanks!

Grasshope,

I think this example does just what you are asking:

Let me know if you are thinking of something else.

Thank you, Chris!

May I ask if there is a way to create a bar chart to shown monthly total building energy consumption that include heating, cooling, light, equipment, fan, etc… i.e. one single bar for each month to indicate the total value?

In a way, it is like the normalization node, but it produces building level total and zone level total values for each input simulation results.

Thanks!

Grasshope,

You will use the same two native GH components mentioned in this other discussion (flip matrix and mass addition) to get these values:

Thank you very much, Chris! The flip matrix component does the trick!
