When I set up the PCM wall, if I want the wall to be able to flip, what is the best way to set it? The wall needs to be able to run OSM successfully and flip at some point in time
Hi @ZoeySwift if I’m not mistaken, constructions can be EMS variables and you can write an energyplus ems routine to use a flipped PCM construction whenever the actuator is actuated, and then use the add_str_ on the run osm component to get your ems routine in the model.

The current method is a little difficult for me, and the PCM setting of EnergyPlus is also the same for me. Could you please help me to complete my program? We can discuss the price and look forward to receiving your reply
@ZoeySwift Currently I don’t have time to get into some EMS, but chatgpt knows E+ and I prompted a ‘write an energyplus ems routine to flip a construction mid simulation’ and got what looks like a pretty good response from chatgpt that might be of some use. if you still require assistance next week I’d be happy to discuss something about finishing your program.
