Read Annual Result I - [source code]

Read Annual Daylight Results I [Standard Daysim Results] -

Inputs

  • illFilesAddress [Required]
    List of .ill files
  • testPoints [Required]
    List of 3d Points
  • ptsVectors [Optional]
    Script variable readDSResults
  • occupancyFiles [Optional]
    Address to a Daysim occupancy file. You can find some example in \Daysim\occ. Use Honeybee Occupancy Generator to generate a custom occupancy file. You can also use EnergyPlus Schedules directly. If the schedule is using continuous values any value larger than .2 will be considered as occupied.
  • DLAIllumThresholds [Default]
    Illuminance threshold for Daylight Autonomy calculation in lux. Default is set to 300 lux.
  • lightingControlGroups [Optional]
    Daysim lighting control groups. Daysim can model up to 10 lighting control groups together. Default is > cntrlType = 4, lightingPower = 250, lightingSetpoint = 300, ballastLossFactor = 20, standbyPower = 3, delayTime = 5
  • SHDGroupI_Sensors [Optional]
    Senors for dhading group I. Use shadingGroupSensors component to prepare the inputs
  • SHDGroupII_Sensors [Optional]
    Senors for dhading group II. Use shadingGroupSensors component to prepare the inputs
  • runIt [Required]
    set to True to run the analysis

Outputs

  • DLA
    Daylight Autonomy > Percentage of the time during the active occupancy hours that the test point receives more daylight than the illuminance threshold.
  • UDLI_Less_100
    Useful Daylight illuminance > Percentage of time during the active occupancy hours that the test point receives less than 100 lux.
  • UDLI_100_2000
    Useful Daylight illuminance > Percentage of time during the active occupancy hours that the test point receives between 100 and 2000 lux.
  • UDLI_More_2000
    Useful Daylight illuminance > Percentage of time during the active occupancy hours that the test point receives more than 2000 lux.
  • CDA
    Continuous Daylight Autonomy > Similar to Daylight Autonomy except that the point receives illuminaceLevel/illuminace threshold for hours that illuminance level is less than the threshold.
  • sDA
    Spatial Daylight Autonomy > sDA is the percent of analysis points across the analysis area that meet or exceed _DLAIllumThresholds value (set to 300 lux for LEED) for at least 50% of the analysis period. Honeybee doesn't consider the effect of dynamic blinds in calculating sDA.
  • annualProfiles
    A .csv file generated by Daysim that can be used as lighting schedule for annual energy simulation
  • htmReport
    Script variable readDSResults
