[Radiance-general] slightly higher irradiance values for -b 1 option

[Ali Fatoorechi]

Hello guys,

I am a bit struggling to make sense of numbers I get. I might have done
something wrong.
The rtrace gives roughly same irradiance figures(apart from the exponent
component) for overcast sky generated with -b 10, -b 100, -b 1000,
or any other power of 10, while -b 1 gives slightly higher value.

rtrace -w -h -I -ab 12 -ad 10000 0 -as 4096 -aa 0 -ar 0 -lw 1E-05 room.oct
< pnt.txt

!gensky 3 21 10 -c -a 51 -o 0 -m 0 -b 1

-b 1:       9.245390e-002   9.245390e-002   9.245390e-002
-b 10:     9.045287e-001   9.045287e-001   9.045287e-001
-b 100:   9.023538e+000   9.023538e+000   9.023538e+000
-b 1000: 9.039278e+001   9.039278e+001   9.039278e+001

This is a simple room with an opening and no glazing.

Thanks,
Ali
