WINDOWDOORinstructions. The WINDOW and/or DOOR instructions must immediatelyfollow the instruction for the EXTERIOR-WALL, or ROOF, upon which thefenestration or entryway occurs. The program will then locate theopenings appropriately and subtract their area from the appropriateexterior wall or roof.After all the spaces and their thermal boundaries have been specified,desired standard output reports are selected using theLOADS-REPORTinstruction. Hourly reports of many variables calculated by LOADS arealso available and may be selected by using theREPORT-BLOCKHOURLY-REPORTinstructions. These instructions also define the time periods forwhich hourly reports are desired. Then enter the instructionsEND ..COMPUTE LOADS ..This concludes the input and initiates the LOADS simulation.SYSTEMS, PLANT, and ECONOMICS runs are not involved enterSTOPNote: If the user wishes to conduct parametric runs (successivesimulations with one or more parameters being changed for eachsimulation), selected user-defined variables can be redefined by usingthePARAMETERinstruction. One common use of this instruction is to specify a "userdefinedvariable" and assign it an initial value. Then parametricstudies can be easily run by changing the value of the "user-definedvariable" instead of making several variable changes, using thePARAMETRIC-INPUT instruction (see Chap.II).Also, if any preprogrammed default values for keywords are to bechanged, this should be done, by using theSET-DEFAULTinstruction. The default values will be over-written by a new userspecifieddefault value each time the SET-DEFAULT instruction isencountered. Repeated use of this instruction may reduce the inputdata task but risks errors caused by incorrect defining of defaults.IlL5 (Rev ised 5/81)If
