Hello, All: -If the three-dimensional model of the object is drawn in the AutoCAD by using solids command will the Radiance recognize this model still as a...
Hi, did anybody get DR installed with AutoCAD 2005? How about 2004? I know that DR was last tested with AutoCAD 2000, but does anybody get DR to work on a ...

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...

Hi, I have a question about the graphic scale in iso-contours when using high resolution images. In order to have good isocontours I am using high resolution...
Hi, I'm trying to create a bulb on Desktop Radiance that I would use as a luminaire for simulations. I'm using the "New Luminaire" wizard, but I get an error...

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...
You could use energyplus weather file which is text format based on TMY2. http://www.energyplus.gov ... __________________________________________________ Do...
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...
Hi Folks, I've been trying for some time now, without success, to model a cylindrical sky light with a dome: the cylinder is easy enough, its just when I put a...
hi. yes, it's possible to do animations. The steps are: 1. Create scene 2. Assign materials 3. Define animation path (Radiance>Analysis>Define Animation Path) ...
hi Anthony, Why do you need to explode the dome? I just modeled one and the surface normal is pointing inwards already... And what did you mean by crashed...
Hi Judy, Thanks for the that advice regarding the dome, but I have tried it again, with the illum only as the cylinder inlet and it works (262 lux at 0.8m from...
hi Anthony, regarding the domed skylight. I started to make a model after reading over your question (too) quickly and I didn't see the part about the ...
