 I&amp;#39;m running a heat gain simulation on a room that is essentially a greenhouse. 
 The glass roof etc has all been set up as has the weather info. 
 The results output of the simulation reads that the temperature within the room stays constant all</description><dc:language>en-US</dc:language><generator>Telligent Community 12</generator><item><title>RE: Heat Gain Simulation reading No solar input</title><link>https://communities.bentley.com/thread/540950?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Thu, 29 Aug 2019 12:52:55 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">6dad98f5-dbc9-4c4d-a9ba-e9da8dc6aa8e:afc84986-b343-4a98-a1d5-47bb87238673</guid><dc:creator>Shane Regan</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;Hi David,&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I have set up the roofs and the simulation is showing solar gains as below:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I note you have two roof drawings so you need to ensure you&amp;nbsp;omit the irrelevant rooms, ie:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;1 - Tiled roof:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;img src="/resized-image/__size/320x240/__key/communityserver-discussions-components-files/275871/pastedimage1567083157529v4.png" alt=" " /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;then,&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;2 - Glass roof:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Thanks for your quick response, this did not however solve the issue.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Do you have any further advise?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Thanks&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I would firstly advise setting up your roof again to ensure that the current roof&amp;nbsp;surfaces are being taken into consideration. Please then try the simulation once more.&lt;/p&gt;
