Buongiorno,

dopo aver studiato l'ombreggiamento dell'edificio preso in esame, ora passiamo ad un'analisi dell'incidenza della radiazione solare su di esso.

Per fare questo riapriamo il modello 3d precendentemente elaborato e arricchiamo il nostro edificio con i dettagli degli aggetti, in particolare i balconi, i cornicioni e la loggia dell'ultimo piano.

The modeling program Autodesk Vasari has among its main functions the ECOTECT SOLAR RADIATION, a tool that allows you to know the amount of radiation, expressed in kWh / sq m, which receive the various parts of a building.

This tool gives us the opportunity to choose in which period of time we want to work, if the analysis looks at a particular time of year or a day, or take into reference an entire season.

I  analyze my palace specifically correlating changes according to three different periods of the year and two different moments of the day:

PROCESS

I proceeded to analyze solar after adding details to the 3D model. I decided to analyze the most significant periods of the year (summer solstice, winter solstice, spring equinox, autumn equinox) trying to verify the deductions made ​​in the first tutorial. 

SPRING EQUINOX

FALL EQUINOX

My building have not projecting elements because the high of the circumstant edifices and the proximity of the court-yard facades make it not very exposed to solar rays.

So for the Solar Radiation Analysis I have decided to study the edifice's court-yard to show its bad condition in term of solar exposure.
