[esp-r] Re: Active/operable shading help

[Geissler Achim]

Dear Francesco

is there a viable data generation method for this model available, in the meantime (or is there a growing selection of data sets for "typical" constructions available)? The problem with the availability of the very detailed data necessary is why this otherwise very good option seems to always slip my mind ...

Thanks, best
Achim

Dear Jeremy
other option is to use the so called BlackBox Model implemented in ESP-r. This model uses Bidirectional date to describe the optical properties of your facade (like the g-value, the transmission).
You can find this option in the "Advanced Optics" menu.
You can choose between Two controls types:
Method a: it uses the "standard" control algorithm as the "zone control" in ESP-r (i.e. you can change your blind position according to a defined incident irradiation or according to the outdoor temperature.
Method b: it uses the predefined .tdfa file.

More information can be found in:
