addHBGlz - [source code]

Use this component to add a custom glazing surface to a HBSurface or HBZone. -

Inputs

  • HBObj [Required]
    A HBZone or HBSurface to which you would like to add a customized glazing surface.
  • childSurfaces [Required]
    A surface or list of surfaces that represent the custom window(s) that you would like to add. Note that these surfaces should be co-planar to the connected HBSurface or one of the surfaces of the connected HBZones.
  • childSurfacesName [Optional]
    An optional list of names for child surfaces. If names are provided the length of names should be the same as _childSurfaces.
  • EPConstructions [Optional]
    An optional list of EnergyPlus constructions to set the material construction of the window added to the HBSurface or HBZone. This can be either the name of a window construction from the OpenStudio library (coming out of the 'Honeybee_Call from EP Construction Library' component) or a custom window construction you created from the 'Honeybee_EnergyPlus Construction' component. The list should match with childSurfaces list. In case the list doesn't match the first construction will be used for all surfaces.
  • RADMaterials [Optional]
    An optional Radiance material to set the material of the window added to the HBSurface or HBZone. This can be either the name of a window material from the default Radaince library (coming out of the 'Honeybee_Call from Radiance Library' component) or a custom window material you created from any of the Radiance material components (like the 'Honeybee_Radiance Glass Material' component). The list should match with childSurfaces list. In case the list doesn't match the first material will be used for all surfaces.

Outputs

  • HBObjWGLZ
    The Honeybee surface or zone with assigned glazing (in case of success).
