Hi all,
I’m testing a benchmark box with a skylight glass with the glass build up
The other settings are ordinary (steel frame construction set, office program, random weather file…)
However, the face indoor/outdoor temperature output surprised me as shown below:
It shows the indoor face is hotter than outdoor in summer with sun radiation (when the room is conditioned and the indoor air temperature is lower than outdoor dry bulb), which is not expected.
I also tested triple glass with very good U-values, it seems as long as I have clear glass at the first layer, this happens.
I’m not sure if I’m evaluating the wrong terms or other settings lead to this result, or this is supposed to be what happens.
