DIVA for Rhino

DIVA-for-Rhino is a plugin which runs thermal, daylight, solar radiation, and glare simulations. Our goal is to bring validated environmental simulations directly to the conceptual design environments of Rhino and Grasshopper.

The component is crudely meshing a nurb surface. Try meshing the curved surface to the desired resolution and then pass the mesh to the component.

Hi,

I have a problem with the geometry. It comes as a curved wall to the input on the Diva material component and exits as a simplified straight wall after this component.

Any advise or help?

Cheers!

Jon, 

I'm also trying to look at MRT as an output from Viper/E+. I've tried editing the IDF file listed below but found that I was unable to load the Viper component in GH after making the suggested adjustments. I know how to generate the MRT output separate from Viper but it would be nice to parametrically output MRT through Viper. Any thoughts as to why I'm getting a load component error after adding the MRT field to the output file listed below? Thanks

Output:Variable,*,Zone Mean Radiant Temperature,hourly; !- Nickname=MRT [C]

Thomas,

We would need more information to troubleshoot - Did you already specify a locations, nodes, and material before you clicked the metrics button?  Did you go through the instructions on in the tutorial or use and of the instructional videos? Check out the www.diva4rhino.com site for the tutorial. If you are still getting the error with the DIVA toolbar in rhino I recommend posting a comment in the DIVA for rhino section of the diva4rhino site as this part of the plugin does not use grasshopper, maybe with a screenshot and uploading your model.

Hope that helps,

Jeff

Hi everybody,
I just got started with Diva, making the 'default' tutorial.

1. I set up the scene

2. When I press the 'Metrics' button to start the calculation I always get a runtime error>>

________

Source: Runtime error in Microsoft VBScript

Error: Index outside valid range: '[number: 1]' 

Line: 95

Char: 13

Code:

________

I run Rhino 5 Evaluation x64 (I used the file from the 64 bit folder to install DIVA)

Anyone knows, what I do wrong?

Cheers,

Thomas

M NICK -- Add the following line to the output control file:

Output:Variable,*,Zone Mean Radiant Temperature,hourly; !- Nickname=MRT [C]

Assuming you have the latest version of DIVA, the output control file will be here: C:\DIVA\Thermal\Grasshopper\IDF_Components\v2.005\02_output_control.idf

After saving the file, the next Viper component you drop on the Grasshopper canvas should have MRT as an option in the Settings form under the Output Tab.
