Hello all, I am looking into modeling a translucent panel. Studying the Radiance manual I came to the conclusion that I need to replace the "Glass" type by a...
Hi, I work for a company that manufactures translucent glazings (Advanced Glazings Ltd.) and I freqently need to model our product. I use the trans material...
Dear All, I am using DR 2.0 with AutoCAD R14. For the DF, I got different values from the simulated (from the simulation manager) and calculated DF (from the...
Dear Desktop Radiance Users, I just wanted to let you all know that membership in the Desktop Radiance group has been hovering around 385 members for the past ...
Hello all, Following my post of Nov. 1st and the help I got from Allan (thanks!) I've started modeling translucent panels with trans material properties...

hi Alex, I think chances are slim that DR will work with ACAD 2005. We haven't had the funding to do development for awhile now. If you check out some of the...
hi Svetlana, If you use ACAD's box command to draw a solid, it would appear as a solid within ACAD but as a 6-surfaced cube when you render it (cube is ...
DR works with AutoCAD up to version 2002. After that Autodesk has changed the way the .arx extensions are written. So we are stuck until we can get Marinsoft,...
Hi, one more question.... many more to come... ;))) I need to simulate a new reflector for street lighting in order to know if I get the minimum lighting level...

hi Alex, if you have a good handle on how to create this reflector (I assume you mean some sort of light fixture with a reflecting something or other) then...
Hi, I'm working on a project with glazing options that have different internal reflectances. What's the best way to model this? I'm thinking trans with 100% ...
Hi, I recently joined the group. I downloaded Desktop Radiance 1.02 a few months ago and started using it by refering to the user manual on the web site. I...

Hallo, the PDF documents linked below may be of interest. They were written for LEARNIX (Linux on CD with Radiance included), but the Radiance examples,...
Hello, I'm trying to model scattering media (smoke), but somehow the illuminance values calculated are wrong, because either with or without the mist material...
maybe your extinction coefficient and your global units definition(meters,cm etc...) are not the same.... ... __________________________________ Do you...
Hi, I´m having difficulties to regulate the camera in simulations using the Radiance software. I am using a 20mm lens to simulate an intern environment...
Hi Aline, at first, be sure about your camera's position. I'd sugest you to use XY filters to locate the camera with precision. Command DVIEW, PO (point of...
These are general daylighting calculation questions and so I hope they are appropriate for this group. Does anyone know of a program or a procedure to convert...

what I meant to say is that you could use energyplus diffused illuminance data and create a % exceeded graph which tracks the % of hours a certain light level...
Hi All, A while since I posted and I'm not certainn how easy this will be to answer. Does anyone have experience of or know if rad files can be generated from...
