omponent that increases in the x-axis (example below).
A1 A2 A3 A4 A5 etc...B1 B2 B3 B4 B5 etc...C1 C2 C3 C4 C5 etc...D1 D2 D3 D4 D5 etc...
This is as far as I've gotten:
I have collected my points on the grid into a "List Length" component and input that into a "Series" which input into a "Function" with the expression Format("A{0}",x). The result labeling resembles the example below.
A1 A2 A3 A4 A5
A6 A7 A8 A9 A10
A11 A12 A13 A14 A15 etc...
Any help is appreciated.
Thank you in advance.…
blinds be (B1,B2..B5). Then the geometry for the five iterations will be ((A+B1), (A+B2)...(A+B5)).
And assume that you are measuring illuminance at four points inside the room (x1,x2,x3,x4) and one point outside the room(y1).
The way Daysim works ( and should work as per the best of my understanding) is that for each setting of the blind (ie. B1,B2,..B5), a separate value of (x1,x2,x3,x4) gets calculated through the Daylight Coefficient Method. So let's say you have illuminance thresholds of (p,q,r,s,t) corresponding to (B1,B2,..B5). What the shade-control algorithm does is that it compares the illuminance at y1 with your threshold of (p,q,..t) and then chooses a value of (x1,x,2,x3,x4) on basis of that. So, when we repeat this process for (365x24=)8760 hours , we end up with a value of a shade setting for each hour which was set on basis of your threshold illuminance values.
I would have gladly answered your question on HB itself, however, I usually work with Daysim directly through commandline.
(BTW, if you are interested in reading more about Daysim google Christoph Reinhart's dissertation on the subject, along with some papers by Zack Rogers).…
