UPDATE
More weather files are now available for more locations around the UK. Previously we had the 14 locations used by CIBSE for the DSY/TRY weather files now there are 30 locations around the UK available for download and more being created every week. Since the current climate data is also ...

Just a note.

When you download the zip file it will contain 20 .epw weather files. Don't panic this is intentional.

The files are named as to what they are, there are both TRY and DSY type files for two emissions scenarios A1B (medium) and A1FI (high) and there are five probability levels for each ...

could you not model it as a room (a tube) with internal emissivity (the solar absorption box represents the emissivity in the visible region) close to 0 to represent a mirror and glass at either end. As i understand it apache should model the reflected light into the room below.

Hello people,

I am afraid this is a shameless plug for my own research. As part of a research council funded project my colleagues and I have compiled future weather files using the UK climate impacts programme's latest set of climate projects UKCP09. These files are probabilistic in nature and ...

Is there a way to add your own textures to the radiance library (such as different roof tiles, types of brick, wall coverings etc). If so is there a limit on the size (pixels) of the repeating image that radiance uses?

I use the CCweatherGen for my work to create future EPW files as distributed by Southampton University. I has the capability to run all three timeslices (2020, 2050, 2080's) and all four 4 SRES scenarios considered by the UK climate impacts programme. Unfortunately this version is UK only.

With the ...
