[Radiance-general] Irradiation on a Solyndra solar module

[Andrew McNeil]

Marco,

Puzzling. I'd suggest starting by adjusting the simulation parameters to
make sure all ambient rays and direct rays are traced.

Here are the simulation parameters you used:
 -I -h -dp 2048 -ms 0.063 -ds .2 -dt .05 -dc .75 -dr 3 -st .01 -lr 12 -lw
.0005 -ab 2 -ad 1000 -as 20 -ar 300 -aa 0.1

Here are the parameters I recommend testing:
 -I -h -dt 0 -dc 1 -lw 1e-5 -ab 2 -ad 2000 -as 1000 -aa 0

If that doesn't help I'd like to see your Solyndra.pts file.

On a side note, this is the second posting where someone is using the -ms
parameter. Are people really using mist in daylight simulations these days?

Andy
