Hello @charlie.brooker,
thank you for putting together the script; it’s very helpful. I’m encountering an issue with the grid size: I only get one point per surface, and reducing the grid size doesn’t increase the number of points unless I set it to less than 100. Even then, I don’t get the expected 8760 values per building—instead, I end up with more. Do you have any suggestions for how I might resolve this? Thank you!
Hi @soukyj,
I’ve received the script you sent me, but the geometry isn’t internalised so unfortunately can’t check exactly what’s going on.
Also, the script you shared uses another grasshopper library I don’t have installed.
I’m a bit confused what your end goal is, if you could share some more details that could be useful.
Cheers,
Charlie
Hello @charlie.brooker,
Thank you for your reply. My objective is to obtain the hourly solar irradiance for each facade of the building to evaluate the potential for BIPV. Using a grid size of 1000 results in only a single data point at the center of each building, which doesn’t accurately reflect the solar irradiance across the entire surface. When I reduce the grid size to 10, I end up with hourly irradiance values for each grid point instead of each facade. I’m looking for a way to find a balance: using a smaller grid size for better accuracy while still consolidating the data to reflect the hourly irradiance for each facade. I attached the file with internalized the data. Thank you for taking the time to have a look at it!
