I am modeling a typical office embedded in a much larger building so will deploy adiabatic surfaces to keep the thermal modeling focused. I see two options: 1. In the office model itself I can identify perimeter partitions as adiabatic or 2. I can add component blocks and identify them as adiabatic. Do these different modeling strategies deliver different results? Is one more appropriate than the other in my case?

Thanks

Hi,

The only difference could be about modeling time consumption.

Regards,

Arturo
