Hey @MingboPeng
I hope you are pretty well.
I noticed there is a cs file in the Ironbug about the solar collector, which at the moment is commented as below:
// using System;
// using Ironbug.HVAC.BaseClass;
// using OpenStudio;
// namespace Ironbug.HVAC
// {
// public class IB_SolarCollectorFlatPlateWater : IB_HVACObject, IIB_PlantLoopObjects
// {
// protected override Func<IB_ModelObject> IB_InitSelf => () => new IB_SolarCollectorFlatPlateWater();
// private static SolarCollectorFlatPlateWater NewDefaultOpsObj(Model model) => new SolarCollectorFlatPlateWater(model);
// private IB_ModelObject _surface => this.GetChild<IB_ModelObject>(0);
// private IB_ModelObject _scp => this.GetChild<IB_ModelObject>(1);
// public IB_SolarCollectorFlatPlateWater() : base(NewDefaultOpsObj)
// {
// this.AddChild(null);
// this.AddChild(null);
// }

Would you kindly let me know whether it is possible to have a solar collector component in the Ironbug?
I am interested in simulating below OpenStudio file from their library:
OS:Version,
{7bcbf9ee-1d65-4f57-9120-0daa2ea14b44}, !- Handle
2.9.0; !- Version Identifier
OS:BuildingStory,

Thank you very much in advance for your time and assistance.
Sincerely,
Hi @behnammmohseni ,
Thanks for your question. Yes, I was trying to support the solar collector in Ironbug, but found it was not easy to do. So, I ended up commenting out the code for whenever it is ready for another round of try.
I will try to look into this over the weekend again, and will keep you posted.
