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.

  • how to change visualized material transmissivity

    I'm looking to produce different visualizations where I change the color and transmissivity of my window panes (see attached two images with the same color and different transmissivity).Changing color is easy with a custom material (I'm using Trans in the radiance library), but when I…

  • Daylight factor Radiance Paramters in DIVA

    Hello!I am using DIVA for grasshopper and I noticed that the daylight factor increases when using higher "quality" or higher radiance parameters. Especially -ab and -ad. So the question about the accuracy of the results I get and how close the results are to reality came up.Where is it to draw the…

  • Strange DIVA-results - geometry/materials missing?

    Hi guys,I have a problem, which I hope you can assist with. I run DIVA version 4.1.0.12 in Rhino 5, and have been using the program for a few years with success. However, now I have a problem where I experience unrealistic results when running simulations for different models - both simple and…

  • "rtrace: warning - No light source found" message

    Hi Guys,I get the message below when running a daylight illuminance analysis.This is strange as I have selected the Boston weather file and ran an analysis that worked well on Rhino. Just checking if this is a problem, the simulation is still running quite well despite the message. Do I need to add…

  • Automate multiple simulations

    Hi All,I am running a climate based daylight simulation for each floor of a multi-story building. A slider controls the floor that is being analysed (and helps generate a unique file name for the result files for each floor).Any ideas of how to automate the process so all floors are simulated so I…

  • Customizing automatic shade

    I am a PhD student and I am using diva/grasshopper for doing daylight simulation.I want to ask about: how could I customize a kinetic shades and define it in Diva daylight analysis as a shading device? notice that I have already build the kinetic unit on grasshopper.Thank you for your help
