I would like to integrate OpenFoam's wind pressure coefficients values on the building surface with my Openstudio energy model to accurately calculate the building surfaces' temperatures. Is there a way to do that?

Thanks!

@GregWard so I think I'm lost and in need of help. I updated the original post with the workflow I used. It would be muc

@GregWard thank you, I'll experiment with this the next few days and hopefully, I can get this to work.

Greg, Thank you so much for your help. I have a question though, what do you mean by "bin calculation"? could you elabo

@rraustad, I didn't know that I have to set the cooling and heating limit to no limit. Thanks!

I'm experimenting with energy modeling using Openstudio through Honeybee. I modeled a building and I used the ideal air load system. I got some unmet heating and cooling hours. Shouldn't an ideal air load system yield 0 unmet heating and cooling hours considering it is ideal (energy coming in the zone = energy going out of the zone)? Am I misunderstanding something here!

No there are not, but that's ok because I'm running simulations using a shell script, I simply add the two path lines be

So, I know a little about Linux, I recently installed Radiance on Ubuntu system (Which is only a command line bash for windows 10). I used Optics2rad script that is located in /usr/bin. I'd like to use evalglare but I can't seem to find it in /usr/bin. So where could it be?

Update I followed Greg's instrudtions, in the comments below). I added /usr/local/radiance/bin to my PATH, and /usr/local/radiance/lib to RAYPATH. My environment (in etc) file contains the following:

PATH="/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games:/usr/local/games:/usr/local/radiance/bin"
RAYPATH ="/usr/local/radiance/lib"

However, When I try to use evalglare I get the "command not found" error message. So I ran echo $PATH, my /usr/local/radiance/lib didn't show up in the list, also I ran echo "$RAYPATH" and I got an empty line command. Any ideas?

Also, another weird problem I'm having, I can't see any .HDR files that are in mnt/c/users/name/Desktop!!!!!!

@rpg777 I was able to solve the HDR files problem. I was able to read HDR files in any other location but the desktop, s

I just found out it's version 4. I don't know how I ended up with version 4. so I download the radiance-5.1.0-linux.tar.

Radiance glass material doesn't take into account the reflectivity of glazing. However, I'm interested in studying the effect of reflective glazing on occupants' visual comfort (glare) in surrounding areas, so reflectance of glass is a required input in this case. How would I define a radiance material for the glazing highlighted in the picture below (the second one, named " Silver 50/30")? it has a reflectance value = 0.39
