Hello,

I am new to Therm.

Question:
I have installed Therm 7.2. In the tutorial there appear to be a number of boundary conditions that are not immediately available in 7.2.
a. Is there somewhere they can be found and down loaded?
b. are there any guidlines on how or why to choose a particular internal or external condition? In australia the external temperature is often not much lower than 10 deg. C and rarely below 0 deg. C.

Context:
I am using therm to calculate the U-values of wall constructions and parts of walls in an australian modular classroom system I am modelling as the foundation for a research project. The classrooms were designed 30 or 40 years ago and are riddled with thermal bridges which is why Therm is particularly useful.

Thanks

Ben

You can make your own boundary conditions in the Boundary Condition Library, and use any temperature that you want to. There is not a library of boundary conditions to download.
