honeybee_radiance.properties.door module¶
Door Radiance Properties.
- class honeybee_radiance.properties.door.DoorRadianceProperties(host, modifier=None, modifier_blk=None, dynamic_group_identifier=None)[source]¶
Bases:
_DynamicRadianceProperties
Radiance Properties for Honeybee Door.
- Parameters
host – A honeybee_core Door object that hosts these properties.
modifier – A Honeybee Radiance Modifier object for the door. If None, it will be set by the parent Room ModifierSet or the Honeybee default generic ModifierSet.
modifier_blk – A Honeybee Radiance Modifier object to be used for this door in direct solar simulations and in isolation studies (assessing the contribution of individual Doors). If None, this will be a completely black material.
dynamic_group_identifier – An optional string to note the dynamic group to which the Door is a part of. Doors sharing the same dynamic_group_identifier will have their states change in unison. If None, the Door is assumed to be static.
- Properties:
host
modifier
modifier_blk
dynamic_group_identifier
states
state_count
is_opaque
is_modifier_set_on_object
is_blk_overridden
- ToString()¶
- add_state(state)¶
Add a Radiance state object to this object.
- Parameters
state – A Radiance state object to add to the this object.
- apply_properties_from_dict(abridged_data, modifiers)[source]¶
Apply properties from a DoorRadiancePropertiesAbridged dictionary.
- Parameters
abridged_data – A DoorRadiancePropertiesAbridged dictionary (typically coming from a Model) with the format below.
modifiers – A dictionary of modifiers with modifier identifiers as keys, which will be used to re-assign modifiers.
{ 'type': 'DoorRadiancePropertiesAbridged', 'modifier': str, # A Honeybee Radiance Modifier identifier 'modifier_blk': str, # A Honeybee Radiance Modifier identifier 'dynamic_group_identifier': str, # An optional dynamic group identifier 'states': [] # An optional list of states }
- duplicate(new_host=None)¶
Get a copy of this object.
- new_host: A new object that hosts these properties.
If None, the properties will be duplicated with the same host.
- classmethod from_dict(data, host)[source]¶
Create DoorRadianceProperties from a dictionary.
Note that the dictionary must be a non-abridged version for this classmethod to work.
- Parameters
data – A dictionary representation of DoorRadianceProperties with the format below.
host – A Door object that hosts these properties.
{ 'type': 'DoorRadianceProperties', 'modifier': {}, # A Honeybee Radiance Modifier dictionary 'modifier_blk': {}, # A Honeybee Radiance Modifier dictionary 'dynamic_group_identifier': str, # An optional dynamic group identifier 'states': [] # An optional list of states }
- is_equivalent(other)¶
Check to see if these energy properties are equivalent to another object.
This will only be True if all properties match (except for the host) and will otherwise be False.
- move(moving_vec)¶
Move all state geometry along a vector.
- Parameters
moving_vec – A ladybug_geometry Vector3D with the direction and distance to move the shades.
- reflect(plane)¶
Reflect all state geometry across a plane.
- Parameters
plane – A ladybug_geometry Plane across which the object will be reflected.
- remove_states()¶
Remove all states assigned to this object.
- reset_to_default()¶
Reset a Modifier assigned at the level of this Shade to the default.
This means that the Shade’s modifier will be assigned by a ModifierSet instead.
- rotate(axis, angle, origin)¶
Rotate all state geometry.
- Parameters
axis – A ladybug_geometry Vector3D axis representing the axis of rotation.
angle – An angle for rotation in degrees.
origin – A ladybug_geometry Point3D for the origin around which the object will be rotated.
- rotate_xy(angle, origin)¶
Rotate all state geometry counterclockwise in the world XY plane.
- Parameters
angle – An angle in degrees.
origin – A ladybug_geometry Point3D for the origin around which the object will be rotated.
- scale(factor, origin=None)¶
Scale all state geometry by a factor.
- Parameters
factor – A number representing how much the object should be scaled.
origin – A ladybug_geometry Point3D representing the origin from which to scale. If None, it will be scaled from the World origin (0, 0, 0).
- to_dict(abridged=False)[source]¶
Return radiance properties as a dictionary.
- Parameters
abridged – Boolean to note whether the full dictionary describing the object should be returned (False) or just an abridged version (True). Default: False.
- property dynamic_group_identifier¶
Get or set a text string for the dynamic_group_identifier.
Objects sharing the same dynamic_group_identifier will have their states change in unison. If None, the object is assumed to be static.
- property host¶
Get the object hosting these properties.
- property is_blk_overridden¶
Boolean noting if modifier_blk has been overridden from default on this object.
- property is_modifier_set_on_object¶
Boolean noting if modifier is assigned on the level of this object.
This is opposed to having the modifier assigned by a ModifierSet.
- property is_opaque¶
Boolean noting whether this object has an opaque modifier.
This has repercussions for how this object is written into the Radiance folder structure.
- property modifier¶
Get or set the Door modifier.
If the modifier is not set on the door-level, then it will be assigned based on the ModifierSet assigned to the parent Room. If there is no parent Room or the parent Room’s ModifierSet has no modifier for the Door type and boundary_condition, it will be assigned using the honeybee default generic ModifierSet.
- property modifier_blk¶
Get or set a modifier to be used in direct solar and in isolation studies.
If None, this will be a completely black material.
- property state_count¶
Get an integer for the number of dynamic states assigned to the object.
- property states¶
Get or set an array of radiance states assigned to this object.
These cannot be set unless there is also a dynamic_group_identifier for the object.
