RE: Simulating external shades

Marco,
I think it is possible to define a different orientation for each wall with
a different shading factor.  This way, you could have WEST1, WEST2, ... for
all the different West oriented walls, and you will have a shading factor
input for each wall, so you can use the solution of Laurent to define the
shading factors.
 
Regards,
Roel

Thank you Laurent for your answer.
 
This is what I was thinking about. But the problem is that I can't do that
for each wall. The Type56 has just one radiation input for each orientation,
so I can do that for each orientation but for the SAME orientation I have
different walls with different shades. Or did I misunderstand your answer?
 
I was thinking about calculating the beam radiation shaded for each wall
manually and entering it as a negative wall gain input in PREBID. Could it
work?
 
Thank you again,
 
Marco
