<p>First up, simulating BSDF-based light shelves <em>properly</em> using Radiance, which is what HB[+] uses, is a fairly non-trivial task. So, I hope you have some experience with using Radiance.</p>
<p>You need to assign the BSDF file to a Honeybee surface. If this is just a single simulation, and not a parametric run of multiple lightshelf types, it is better to stick to Daylight Coefficients instead of going the Five Phase route.

<p>You need to assign the BSDF file to a Honeybee surface. If this is just a single simulation, and not a parametric run of multiple lightshelf types, it is better to stick to Daylight Coefficients instead of going the Five Phase route. If you do use the Three/Five Phase method, and the light shelf stretches across the window (eg from exterior to interior), split them into separate internal and external surfaces. Within Radiance parlance, such shading systems can be categorized as <a href="https://www.radiance-online.org/community/workshops/2015-philadelphia/presentations/day1/OutOfPlaneShading.pdf" target="_blank">out-of-plane shading devices</a>.</p>
<p>Finally, it would be advisable to do a before and after check of illuminance/imaging values, without and with the lightshelf respectively, to ensure that the results make sense. It might be a good idea to place a grid of downward-pointing illuminance sensors on the ceiling to ensure that the light redirection is indeed taking place.</p>

<p>Hi, thank you for developing this awesome tool. Quick question, does Honeybee Plus have the capacity to simulate light shelf or light louver using BSDF file (like in 3-phase or 5-phase calculation)? If so, do I need to create a geometry for the light shelf or louver or just assign it to a window? I'm not sure if those will be seen as honeybee surface, window surface or window group. </p>

<p>Hi Mostapha,</p>
<p>Thank you for your clear answer, and the hint for the component, I will let you know if anything. I tried the reuse Mtx in windows and it works.</p>

<p>Hi Peter,</p>
<p>In multi-phase analysis if reuse*Mtx is set to True the component will only load the results without running the analysis.</p>
<p></p>
<p>In case you want to create your own component, use Human or other plugins to get the list of the results files and then use <a href="https://github.com/ladybug-tools/honeybee/blob/47861eae14be1116d4183348a8b63867e356932b/honeybee/radiance/recipe/daylightcoeff/gridbased.py#L307-L342" target="_blank">this part of the code</a>.

<p>On the cross-platform aspect, to add to Mostapha's release notes, the <a href="https://github.com/ladybug-tools/honeybee" target="_blank">core library</a> has been tested on the following platforms:</p>
<p>Linux Ubuntu: Version 14.04 | 16.04 | 17.04</p>
<p>Linux RHEL: 6.8</p>
<p>Unix FreeBSD: 10.0</p>

<p>The core dependencies for running Honeybee on the cloud are Python 2.7, Radiance, git and honeybee . Since Apple computers typically run Unix-like OSs, we don't foresee any portability issues with them.</p>
