Run daylight analysis for 8 hours

Hi all,

I am using automated blinds in my simulation and I can get the daylight analysis for a specific hour in a day. I tried to get Daylight analysis for 8 hours (9am-5pm) using “Read hourly results from annual daylight study”… but I failed.

I think because I am using automated blinds! … or I am using the wrong component?

Can you help me with that issue…?

Please see attached files.


Best regards,

Ahmad Eltaweel




Hi Ahmad, In your second image the results of runDylightAnalysis is empty, since you haven’t ran the analysis. The boolean is set to False.

Hi Ahmed, I studied your article related to optimizing blinds in an office, using movable and rotating slats. Great. I am working on a new issue, using your idea in free form building skins, with different types of patterns. to do that, I need your help. I wondered if you guided me with the article. I am going to submit the article from both of us since I have get the main idea and helps from your’s.

If you can help me, please let me know.

Kindest regards.
