vid Rutten (the creator of Grasshopper) as the leading poster. Amassing just over 7000 posts. I have been a regular contributor since this forum starter 5 years ago and I am only half way there.
The line between "the only stupid question is the unasked question" and the "why is no one here answering my questions question" needs to be walked with care.
We have all been where you are now. Admittedly it was probably easier for me as there wasn't that much to the program when I started using it and my learning curve has been an incremental one as things get added.
It doesn't help that all the documentation that is around is out of date as soon as it gets published, but that is the nature of software in BETA... things change. I know of a concerted effort by the powers to be to document Grasshopper better. But this is a little way of from completion.
If it helps I can think of two examples of questions that I either should have asked or did and regretted.
Firstly I had no idea you could bake geometry into the rhino document when I first used Explicit History (former name of GH) I mean what the hell does a fried egg have to do with it :) so I simply ignored the plug-in for a month or so. If I'd asked how do I get my Red transparent surfaces into Rhino, I would have been using it a lot sooner.
Secondly I wished for a way to display the output of a component so that I could see it without having to hover over the tool tip each time. I didn't realise that Post-it Note (or Panel as it is now due to copyright issues) had an input as well as an output.
The most important thing to remember is that Grasshopper is an extension of Rhino. By not knowing Rhino you are at a greater disadvantage than the rest.
If you don't know how you should go about modelling something in Rhino how are you going to be able to develop meaningful algorithms in Grasshopper.

sistance of radiative and convective heat transfer through the _filmCoefficient input on the "Create Therm Boundaries" component. This filmCoefficient in W/m2K represents the "U-Value" of the air film between the edge of the THERM materials and the surrounding environment that is at the specified _temperature. The extra resistance from this air film is why the full construction U-Value that you are getting out of THERM is a lower than just the (conductivity of material) / (depth of the material). Accounting for air films is particularly important when you get constructions that have a high overall conductivity (like a single pane window), since almost all of the resistance of such a construction is due to the air films.
To elaborate further, you might have noticed that, in the example files on hydra, I set this filmCoefficient to be either "indoor" or "outdoor", which basically uses some code that I wrote to autocalculate the film coefficient for you. I take into account both the emissivity of the material at the boundary (which gives you more air film resistance for lower emissivities) as well as the orientation of the boundary in the 3D space of the Rhino model. The code I wrote will take these parameters and match them to those published in ASHRAE Fundementals, which you can see in table 1 of the first page of this PDF:
http://edge.rit.edu/content/C09008/public/2009%20ASHRAE%20Handbook
I interpolate between these values in the event that your emissivity is not 0.05, 0.2, 0.9 or the orientation of your boundary is not any one of the 5 that they give.
I know that THERM also has the capability to actually run the radiative and convective formulas that you posted, Mauricio, as opposed to just using a single film coefficient to account for all of this resistance. The running of these formulas is particularly useful is the radiant temperature at the boundary is different than the air temperature. However, as long as you are ok with this assumption that the air and radiant temperatures are the same (which is the case for all of the situations that I have encountered), the film coefficient is perfectly sufficient. If anyone ever has need for this capability of running boundary conditions that have different radiant and air temperatures, please post here and I can think of a way to implement it. I rather like the simplicity of the current interface, though, and I think that I will keep it this way until we understand the purposes for why someone would need separate radiant and air temperatures.

La Visiting School digitalMed 2014, promovida por Medaarch y Emwesoft Sevilla S.L.N.E, se celebrará en la ciudad de Sevilla, y tendrá como tema central la Smart City y el estudio de la interacción entre las personas y su entorno a través de objetos, dispositivos e infraestructuras.
Fecha limite de inscripción: 16/01/2014
info@emwesoft.com
OBJECTIVOS Adquirir la capacidad de gestionar flujos de datos en los que las ciudades están sumergidas, para insertar proyectos que sean útiles, contextualizados, poco invasivos y aptos a establecer un intercambio de informaciones con los usuarios.
El objetivo final es redactar un catálogo de proyectos que puedan formar parte de un contexto urbano y puedan delinear el perfil de las ciudades en las que viviremos en el futuro próximo.
METODOLOGÍA Metodología basada en el aprendizaje activo, en la puesta en práctica de métodos activos que estimulan y facilitan el intercambio de experiencias y puntos de vista entre el alumnado: Buscando la participación del alumno, planteando todas las cuestiones que considere necesarias a la hora de aclarar conceptos.
Fomentando el debate y la colaboración entre los participantes.
Dando respuesta a las dudas planteadas.
La metodología será presencial, lo cual permite un mayor acercamiento entre profesor y alumno, y en consecuencia una mayor asimilación de los conceptos.
PROGRAMA Los primeros días del taller serán dedicados a establecer definiciones comunes que nos permitan trabajar a partir de significados compartidos. En esta fase se tratarán temáticas que recurren a menudo en la práctica arquitectónica contemporánea, es decir el diseño computacional, la fabricación digital y los data driven. Los alumnos tendrán la posibilidad de aprender a usar software para el diseño paramétrico, como Rhinoceros y el plug-in Grasshopper, a través del conocimiento de dichos software, el alumno conseguirá competencias teóricas y técnicas, para un enfoque al diseño computacional.

Data matching is a problem without a clean solution. It occurs when a component has access to differently sized inputs. Imagine a component which creates line segments between points. It will have…
h, and using the BScale and BDistance are creating havoc somehow too. I've simplified first, and used the Kangaroo Frames component along with setting internal iterations, to make MeshMachine act like a normal component, along with releasing the FixC and FixV. The FixV didn't make any sense anyway. I've also set Pull to 0 to speed it up during testing, since much less calculation is involved to just let the meshes collapse, prevented from disappearing altogether by using a mere 15 iterations.
Also, your breps are open so that allows much more chaos and then collapse, though they did manage to close themselves too at times. Here is closed breps with a full 45 iterations:
So now that it's working, lets re-Fix the curves, and the problem arises that there is an extra seam line that is getting fixed too, running along the cylinder, stopping the mesh from pulling tight under tension wherever a vertex happens to be near that line:
So lets grab only the naked edge curves instead:
And what happens if we lose the end caps, now that we don't have an extra line skewing the result?:
There is no real curvature differences since it's not a curvy brep so the Adapt at full 1 setting has little to do. Now what does the BScale and BDist do? Nothing! Why? Your scale is out of whack, 99 mm high cylinders but only a falloff maximum of about 5, so let's make the falloff be 25 instead, but I must restore the end caps or the meshes collapse away for some reason and freezes Rhino for a minute or so the first time I try it:
It's a start.
If I intersect the cylinders, nothing changes, since they are being treated as separate runs. MeshMachine outputs a sequence of two outputs though, due to Frames being set to a bare minimum of 2 needed to get it to work, so I filter out the original run, which is just the unmodified initial mesh it creates.
The lesson so far is that closed meshes are much less prone to collapse and glitches leading to screw ups.
A Boolean union of the cylinders is when it gets funner, here show with and without the fixed curves that seem to define boundaries too where really there are just polysurface edges:
