Hi all,
We’re using the HB annual irradiance tool to compare the direct irradiance between a window « without context » and a window « with context » ( mainly the context is the building morphology affecting the received irradiance )
To draw the window « without context » , we offseted the window’s grid 3 meters away from the building, so the context won’t affect it and for the window « with context » , we left it in its place.
The weird thing is that we are receiving the same amount of direct radiation for both of the cases.
I was wondering if the tool is taking into consideration the context , which we tried inputing it in two different methods
By creating an « HB face » and inputing it in the « HB model »
By inputing it in an « HB shade » and then in the shade of the « Hb model »
Is there another way to include the building as a context in the Hb annual irradiance ?
