Opaque Material

​
 - [source code]​
Create a standard opaque material, which can be plugged into the "HB Opaque Construction" component.
Inputs
name
Text to set the name for the material and to be incorporated into a unique material identifier. 
thickness [Required]
Number for the thickness of the material layer [m]. 
conductivity [Required]
Number for the thermal conductivity of the material [W/m-K]. 
density [Required]
Number for the density of the material [kg/m3]. 
spec_heat [Required]
Number for the specific heat of the material [J/kg-K]. 
roughness
Text describing the relative roughness of the material. Must be one of the following: 'VeryRough', 'Rough', 'MediumRough', 'MediumSmooth', 'Smooth', 'VerySmooth'. (Default: 'MediumRough'). 
therm_absp
A number between 0 and 1 for the fraction of incident long wavelength radiation that is absorbed by the material. (Default: 0.9). 
sol_absp
A number between 0 and 1 for the fraction of incident solar radiation absorbed by the material. (Default: 0.7). 
vis_absp
A number between 0 and 1 for the fraction of incident visible wavelength radiation absorbed by the material. Default value is the same as the sol_absp. 
Outputs
mat
A standard opaque material that can be assigned to a Honeybee Opaque construction.
