[docs]class TwoElement(object):
"""This class contains attributes and functions for two element model
This model distinguishes between internal thermal masses and exterior walls.
While exterior walls contribute to heat transfer to the ambient, adiabatic
conditions apply to interior walls. This approach allows considering the
dynamic behaviour induced by internal heat storage. This class calculates
and holds all attributes given in documentation.
It treats Rooftops, GroundFloors and OuterWalls as one type of outer
walls and computes one RC-combination for these types.
Depending on the chosen method it will consider an extra resistance for
windows or merge all windows into the RC-Combination for outer walls.
Parameters
----------
thermal_zone: ThermalZone()
TEASER instance of ThermalZone
merge_windows : boolean
True for merging the windows into the outer wall's RC-combination,
False for separate resistance for window, default is False. (Only
supported for IBPSA)
