Modeling roof windows in CEA #3492

Open ShiZhongming opened 6 months ago

ShiZhongming commented 6 months ago

Currently, CEA radiation is considering window-to-wall ratio for building facades and there is no capcity of modeling roof windows. However, many building designs have roof windows and they affect radiation and space of energy conversion devices (e.g. cooling tower and PV panels).

Hence, it would be great to enable CEA modeling roof windows.
