Feature Type
A thermal zone is a zone of a building which serves as unit for the building heating and cooling simulation. For the simulation,
a thermal zone is considered as isothermal.
It is a semantic object, which may be or not related to a geometric entity.

FloorArea
Attribute type: energy:grossVolume |
Volume of a Thermal Zone measured by its external dimensions. These external dimensions lies on the outside face of exterior boundaries (e.g. wall, roof) and at the middle of boundaries shared by several Thermal Zone (e.g. shared wall, intermediary floor), so that the sum of the Building Thermal Zone grossVolume equals the Building grossVolume.
