Attributes

AttributeTypeDescription
identifierUnique text identifier.
zone_id_numintNumeric ID for the adjacent zone.
zone_nameName of the adjacent zone.
zone_typeClassification of the adjacent zone.
temperature_reduction_factorThe heating-demand factor, and the fallback for the four optional factors below. Default: 1.0.
heating_load_reduction_factorHeating-load factor, or None to use the heating-demand factor. Default: None.
cooling_demand_reduction_factorCooling-demand factor, or None to use the heating-demand factor. Default: None.
cooling_load_reduction_factorCooling-load factor, or None to use the heating-demand factor. Default: None.
passive_cooling_reduction_factorPassive-cooling factor, or None to use the heating-demand factor. Default: None.
adjacent_zone_temperature_cTemperature of the adjacent zone (deg. C). Carried for exporters which derive the factors from it rather than taking them directly. Default: None.
