.Buildings.ThermalZones.Detailed.FLEXLAB.Rooms.X3B.Closet .Buildings.ThermalZones.Detailed.FLEXLAB.Rooms.X3B.ClosetThis is a model for the closet attached to test cell 3B in the LBNL User Facility. This documentation describes the wall constructions used in the closet. Documentation describing how it should be connected to other models in the package to form a complete model of test cell X3B can be found in Buildings.ThermalZones.Detailed.FLEXLAB.Rooms.X3B.
There are four different wall sections connected to the closet modeled here. They are shown in the figure below.
The different wall sections are represented in the model according to the following table.
| Wall Section Number | Description | Location in Model | Corresponding Layer |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | West wall connected to X3A.Closet | datConBou[2] | celDiv |
| 2 | North wall on the exterior of the buildings | datConExt[1] | higIns |
| 3 | East wall connected to Electrical | datConBou[1] | higIns |
| 4 | Air space connected to partition wall and door in TestCell model | Wall: datSurBou[1] Door: datSurBou[2] |
There are two additional surfaces which are not included in the diagram. One is the model of the roof. It is
modeled in datConExt[2] using the layer roo. The other is the floor, which is modeled in
datConBou[3] using the layer slaCon.
Several of the connections in this model are intended to be connected to specific surfaces in other room models. The following table describes the connections to models outside of the X3B package. The connections in datConExt are not described in the table because they are connected to the external environment, and no additional heat port connections are necessary. A rationale for why the model is created this way is also provided if it is considered necessary.
| Location in Closet | Description of External Connection | Location in External Model | Rationale |
|---|---|---|---|
| surf_conBou[2] | X3A.Closet | X3A.ClosetNoCelDiv.surf_surBou[3] | |
| surf_conBou[3] | Ground temperature | There is no specific connection which is appropriate connection for this construction. surf_conBou[3] represents the floor of the room, and must be connected to a heat port representing the ground temperature. |
