[esp-r] Re: solar obstructions

[Oliver Bucks]

Dear Jordan,

In general, the solar obstruction should block out the sun's energy. However, 
care should be taken when dimensionning the obstructions - if the height or 
length of the obstruction is smaller than the resolution of the grid ESP-R 
projects onto the shaded surface(s), its shading will not be taken into 
account..... The grid size can be manually set in the shading and insolation 
window.

Hope this helps....

Olli Bucks
