Door Properties
Contains controls used to view and define properties for door surface types. Window surfaces are sub-surfaces which are placed on surfaces like exposed walls and partitions. Their construction layers affect the thermal properties of the rooms in which they exist. The door contains properties that all surface sub-types share as well as properties specific to the door sub-type.
The Properties For: Door dialog opens when the Door Project Tree object´s pop-up menu is activated in the OpenBuildings Energy Simulator Project Tree dialog box and the Properties menu item is selected.
Note: The
Door Construction details properties
panels under the Construction details heading contain controls used to view the
selected door construction details. The properties displayed here are saved in
the OpenBuildings Energy Simulator materials database’s constructions definitions. Constructions
can be viewed, manipulated and created using controls and settings found on the
Materials
Manager
dialog.
Property heading | Properties |
---|---|
Category | Displays the surface category. Category is a read only property. |
Sub type | Displays the surface sub-type as Door. This property is disabled, and can not be changed. |
Name | Used to enter a name for the door. The name entered here appears appended to the door object on the OpenBuildings Energy Simulator Project Tree dialog box. |
Construction | Used to view of change the door material construction definition. |
Dimensions | Displays overall dimensions of the selected door.
|
Common | Displays common construction details for all surface
sub-types. Common construction details are read only properties.
|
Layers | Contains controls used to display the surface’s construction material layers in a read only table. The table displays thermal properties for each layer such as the thickness, density, conductivity, specific heat and vapor resistivity. |
