orm of the model but when I try to add the piping to it, I get the message saying Windows has ran out of memory.
I am using Windows 7 and have tried going into the BCD as recommended here: http://wiki.mcneel.com/rhino/memoryincrease but I was not able to run this command.
I have then tried to increase my virtual memory within Windows, even up to 30GB with no luck.
I'm pretty sure I'm doing something really wrong here but I really need to get this modelled ASAP for a portfolio submission.
Any help would be very much appreciated!

to select a period of time across the year, for example, every hour from January 1 to June 30.
I currently use DOY/HOY to assign the analysis period (basically I want to run 8760 hours), and connect its HOY to DAY_MONTH_HOUR_CALCULATOR. Then, connect it to CB sky. But, there are several warnings pop-up on the component "DOY/HOY", says Feb. has 28 days, the date is corrected by Ladybug, and as well as other months less than 31 days. After the HOY is connected to the "DAY_MONTH_HOUR_CALCULATOR", the warnings are gone, and the lines become green. However, when I connect the "DAY_MONTH_HOUR_CALCULATOR" to CB sky, the output of "sky file pate" turns orange again. This causes the repetition of the last day of those months less than 31 days.
(I attach a picture for your information)
Does any of you know how to solve this problem? And what is the best way to run annual hourly (8760 hours) with CB sky?
Many thanks in advance!!

arq, que se celebrará entre el 28 de Enero y el 1 de Febrero de 2013 en el Colegio de Arquitectos de Granada.
El taller está destinado a arquitectos, artistas y diseñadores, tanto como profesionales, como estudiantes de grado y posgrado, que, sin necesidad de haber tenido ningún contacto previo con entornos de programación o herramientas informáticas de dibujo paramétrico o generativo, están interesados en probar y experimentar con las opciones que nos pueden ofrecer a los diseñadores.
El taller está dividido en tres bloques:
Curso intensivo: del 28 de Enero al 30 de Febrero, en horario de mañana, de 10 a 14. Taller de proyectos: del 28 de Enero al 30 de Febrero, por la tarde, de 16 a 20; y el 31 de Febrero, durante todo el día.
Presentaciones: viernes 1 de Febrero, mañana y tarde.
Utilizaremos Grasshopper, el editor algorítmico asociado al software de modelado tridimensional y dibujo Rhinoceros, por su facilidad de aprendizaje, al tratarse de un entorno gráfico, facilidad de adquisición, al ser gratuito y haber disponible una versión de prueba de Rhinoceros también gratuita, y amplia difusión en los últimos años. Y lo emplearemos tanto como modelador, como conector entre otros softwares y varias disciplinas. Por este motivo, también utilizaremos algunos de sus plug-ins, como Geco, para análisis ambiental, Elk, para enlazarlo con OpenStreetMap o Kangaroo, para simulación de sistemas físicos.
Lo único que necesitas es un ordenador portátil (si no pudieras conseguir), hacer el ingreso con el importe correspondiente y mandarnos tus datos y el recibo bancario del ingreso a smartlabgranada@gmail.com. Puedes ver los detalles en el apartado de Inscripción. El resto del material, tanto software como hardware, lo ponemos nosotros.
Nuestro acercamiento a estas herramientas es entusiasta acerca del potencial creativo que pueden ofrecer a diseñadores y artistas, pero también crítico y especulativo. Nos alejamos tanto de una posición puramente formalista, como del estricto funcionalismo, a los que desde los últimos años frecuentemente se ha asociado a esta disciplina.…

ectural project, the efficiency of design communication and the control of information-flow are as important as the creativity of ideas. In response to the concurrent digital evolution emerging in the architectural industry world-wide, the Faculty of Architecture at The University of Hong Kong will host a two week intensive summer program named Digital Practice.Led by professors from The University of Hong Kong, as well as invited practitioners with expertise in practice of cutting edge digital techniques, the program offers participants opportunities to experience applications of computational tools during different stages of an architectural project, i.e. concept design, form finding and optimization, delivery, management and communication of design information under the team-based working environment. By learning advanced computational techniques through case studies in the context of Hong Kong, participants are expected to go beyond the conventional perception of technology, considering users and tools as a feedback-based entity instead of a dichotomy. The program, which is taught in English, includes a series of evening lectures related delivered by teaching staff and invited local architects.對於高品質的建築專案,創意之外,專案過程中高效的設計資訊管理和交流成為項目設計深化和實施必不可少的環節。今天,數字化技術不但改變了建築師的繪圖工具,影響了設計的過程,而且提供了工程建造和管理實施的更有效、更高效的手段。針對建築的數位化演進,香港大學建築學院將於2011年暑假期間,在香港大學建築學院舉辦“數位化實踐”國際研習班。在香港大學建築學院教授及有著相關豐富經驗的外聘實踐建築師的指導下,學員將有機會體驗在專案的不同階段(如概念設計、設計形式的生成、優化,設計資訊的管理和交流),如何有效地應用各種運算智慧化技術(從設計的數位化生成和建築資訊類比到物理模型),提升設計實施的品質,增加設計團隊對於方案的控制。我們將挑戰對於“技術”的傳統認知,即相對於使用者它不僅是工具,更是與使用者互動的媒介,二者形成一個有機的合體。研習班期間會安排系列講座,展現數位化技術在實踐工程中的廣泛應用。…

I can point you to a couple of examples of structures at Expedition that we issued the primary set-out information to the contractor in digital form as a Rhino File. These particular structures necessitated this, trying to document tapered structures without "pure" mathematical setout would have been inefficient and problematic using traditional CAD drawings. You will need to have a close working relationship with the contractor/fabricator. For example, we would issue the entire model due various phases, and we used special line-type names assigned to layers to denote status such as "For Construction", "For Information", etc etc so that this information is clearly defined.
Infinity bridge is a project everyone that was involved in was proud of, http://www.expedition.uk.com/index.php?pid=28 . All the setout of this form found dual arch bridge, that the box girder bifurcated over the centre support and tapered in size along it's length with inclined webs was defined in our Rhino model. Of course we still had to issue traditional 2d plans, elevations and sections (which were primarily exported line work from sectioning in Rhino), as builders don't generally walk around with laptops (and there was 3rd party checking, contract letting etc that don't work so well with digital models).
Also, the Entrance Transfer Structure at 55 Baker Street - http://www.expedition.uk.com/index.php?pid=55 (First photo in sequence) was our first project in communicating to the contractor with Rhino models as primary set-out.
Both of these projects were a success, but you have to be really careful and diligent with the models and the checking of them (not that that is any different to any drawing/model preperation). The slightest error could be quite costly if first detected when the project is on site being assembled.
I can also say, that many of the tools for exchanging (importing and exporting) of structure models that you can try from http://www.geometrygym.com/downloads are being used by quite a few firms around the globe for more typical skeletal steel frame projects. Many of the analysis programs can then be used to transfer the structure directly to BIM like REVIT, and some custom spreadsheet formats allow transfer to/from Digital Project. I can't really say in public the projects these are being used on, but I can say they are renowned designers on quite high profile projects.
Even if the tools are used for coordinating and checking with your Rhino model if you need to redevelop from scratch, they will save you time and effort, and a key aspect of the service of these tools is near immediate support with custom and bespoke aspects that your project demands.
Feel free to get in touch if you wish to discuss this privately, I'm happy to try and help you if you desire.
Cheers,
Jon

As soon as I added materials (if you had add them in a different way they were not working for me) it had senseYou can see that the comfort chart when the windows are closed is the same, as it should be. When they are open you can see that the temperatures decrease and the RH increases (as it is high outside). There is also similar shapes on the comfort chart as the airflow volume showing when the windows are close for excessive temperature creating discomfort, this is logic, as your windows close at 28 degrees, what is not considered "comfortable" (however there are studies explaining it is comfort in certain situations, as in buildings with natural ventilation).
My guess is that energy plus was not reading properly your materials. Probably Mostapha and Chris will answer to this better than me
I have grouped the things I added to your script, hope it helps. If you upload the IDF I may try to help you a bit more until someone else helps you better.

Modulo 1Il workshop è finalizzato a fornire ai partecipanti i fondamenti della modellazione parametrica e generativa attraverso Grasshopper, plug-in di programmazione visuale per Rhinoceros 3D (uno dei più diffusi modellatori NURBS per l‘architettura e il design). Il workshop mira a gestire e sviluppare il rapporto tra informazione e geometria lavorando sui sistemi di involucro in condizioni specifiche. La discretizzazione di superfici (pannellizazione sia Nurbs che Mesh), la modellazione delle geometrie attraverso informazioni (siano esse provenienti da dati di analisi ambientali, da mappe di colore o da database), l’estrazione e la gestione di informazioni richiedono la comprensione delle strutture dei dati al fine di definire un processo che va dalla progettazione alla costruzione.I partecipanti impareranno come costruire e sviluppare strutture di dati parametrici per informare geometrie ‘data-driven’ e come estrarre le informazioni rilevanti da tali modelli per il processo di costruzione.Modulo 2Il workshop, volto a promuovere le nuove tecnologie digitali di supporto alla progettazione e alla fabbricazione, fornirà ai partecipanti gli strumenti per la preparazione, attraverso Grasshopper, dei modelli per il processo di stampa 3d. Il workshop inoltre, darà ai partecipanti i fondamenti dell’uso della stampante 3d e si concluderà con la fabbricazione del proprio modello realizzato durante il corso.

be done easier, but later on the geometry will change and therefore this seems the better option. But coming back to the problem
First, there were some problems concerning the zone, although it seems solved still the “runenergysimulation” gives the following warning:
1. The simulation has not run correctly because of this severe error:
** Severe ** UpdateZoneSizing: Cooling supply air temperature (calculated) within 2C of zone temperature
Do one of you know what went wrong? It probably will solve most of it.
Second, “set Zone Thresholds” gives the following warning:
1. Solution exception:global name 'maxHumidity_' is not defined
However, the component is missing the max humidity input on the list, has this to do something with the error?
All the components are up to date.
I hope it will be an easy fix.
