I want to use the prototype buildings in openstudio, however, they are not available for climate zone 0B (Qatar). how can fix this issue ? Or what is the best way to design a building in climate zone 0B?
Hello Ammar. The OpenStudio measure, Create DOE Prototype Building, does not include climate zone 0 so far, but we have already added climate zone 0A and 0B in the openstudio standards. The easy way for you is to find this measure (create_DOE_prototype_building/measure.rb) and use the text editor to open it. Then, you need to add climate_zone_chs << 'ASHRAE 169-2013-0B' between lines 104 and 105. Then, it should work.
In addition, I posted this issue here.
This is great, thank you so much !!
