[TRNSYS-users] skylight fixed shading

[Cramer Silkworth]

Hi All,
 
I've got a building that has skylight with hoods to block the direct
sunlight (similar to a northshed). Are there any types out there
suitable for modeling these? I was thinking perhaps create another
orientation with only diffuse horizontal radiation and connect that to
the skylights, and also do and ecotect or sketchup analysis of the
geometry to see if the hoods do indeed block all direct light, but I'm
wondering what other people's thoughts on this are.
 
Thanks,
Cramer
