[esp-r] solar radiation code in esp-r

[Rong Li]

Hi all,

My project deals with the energy simulation of an atrium space in which part 
of the vertical walls can be heated by the sun. Is it possible for the solar 
radiation code in esp-r to calculate the distribution of solar radiation so 
that the temperatures for both heated and unheated parts can be obtained for 
each time step and then coupled with CFD? As I understand, CFD can only give 
uniform boundary condition for each wall during coupling process. If not, is 
there any radiation code available that can be incorporated into esp-r for 
this purpose?

Thanks very much in advance.
