The layers are split into 8 sublayers: the layer boundaries are the nodes nod = {1, 3, 5, 8, 9}, the nodes inside the layers sub = {2, 4, 6, 7} (see Conventions). Long-wave emissivity 0.88 outside, 0.85 inside; solar absorptance 0.55 outside, 0.65 inside. The outer walls and the partition of the hydronic examples and of TwoZones.
