[Radiance-general] Proxy geometry in the five-phase method

[WEI, Minchen [BSE]]

Hi All,

I have questions regarding the proxy geometry in the five-phase method.

I tried the tutorial using a room with a glazing (no venetian blinds). The daylight coefficient and three-phase method can produce similar results, but the five-phase method produce smaller illuminance values.

I think the problem is coming from the "proxy geometry". In my "proxy geometry" I only included a glazing geometry with the transmittance I used in the daylight coefficient method. Is that right?

I looked at the proxy geometry included in Sarith's tutorial which included all the blinds, the glazing, and a BSDF ("blindsT4c.xml") for maxPoly and minPoly. How should I generate these BSDF if I have the blinds?

Thanks,

Tommy
