Room
Create Honeybee Room from Honeybee Faces.
Note that each Room is mapped to a single zone in EnergyPlus/OpenStudio and should always be a closed volume to ensure correct volumetric calculations and avoid light leaks in Radiance simulations.
- faces [Required]A list of honeybee Faces to be joined together into a Room.
- nameText to set the name for the Room and to be incorporated into unique Room identifier. If the name is not provided, a random name will be assigned.
- mod_setText for the modifier set of the Room, which is used to assign all default radiance modifiers needed to create a radiance model. Text should refer to a ModifierSet within the library) such as that output from the "HB List Modifier Sets" component. This can also be a custom ModifierSet object. If nothing is input here, the Room will have a generic construction set that is not sensitive to the Room's climate or building energy code.
- constr_setText for the construction set of the Room, which is used to assign all default energy constructions needed to create an energy model. Text should refer to a ConstructionSet within the library) such as that output from the "HB List Construction Sets" component. This can also be a custom ConstructionSet object. If nothing is input here, the Room will have a generic construction set that is not sensitive to the Room's climate or building energy code.
- programText for the program of the Room (to be looked up in the ProgramType library) such as that output from the "HB List Programs" component. This can also be a custom ProgramType object. If no program is input here, the Room will have a generic office program. Note that ProgramTypes effectively map to OpenStudio space types upon export to OpenStudio.
- conditionedBoolean to note whether the Room has a heating and cooling system.
- reportReports, errors, warnings, etc.
- roomHoneybee room. These can be used directly in energy and radiance simulations.
