Hi to one and all.
Just a quick query that I am hoping some of the more enlightened may shed
some light one....I am modelling a simple room that I constructed from
standard black mounting board (card board, black one side, white the other).
Cannon-Brookes (Simple scale models for daylighting design...CIBSE national
lighting conference 1996, pp. 147-153) states that such mounting board will
have a reflectance of 8.5%.
If I wish to model this in Radiance, what specularity and roughness might
anyone suggest...or perhaps you know of a reference that such work is
presented? I will set the reflectance for the material by altering the
material RAD file. The actual material I am using currently is
Traffic_black, which has reflectance of 8.83% and zero specularity and
roughness.
Furthermore, the material file which I used in desktop radiance states a
reflectance of 8.83 (Traffic black) but when I looked at the respective RAD
file I get:
# RAL9017_Traffic_black RAL RAL840-HR
# 0.02
void plastic RAL9017_Traffic_black
0
0
5 0.05098 0.070588 0.101961 0 0
I assume these values for 8.83% reflectance were shown to have 5% red, 7%
green, and 10% blue were shown to exist for this material (does anyone have
a reference for this study?). What configuration should I use for mounting
board to produce 8.5% or is there a great difference from the simulation end
point?
With kind regards,
Anthony

Dear Group
I came across a Radiance rendering of an orange and a tennis ball (I think
many people are familiar with this scene). I do understand that the fuzz on
the tennis ball is geometry. I am wondering if there exist a program a
program that created and/or instanced the geometry to create this.
Thanks
Marcus

I found the original code, by Isaac Kwo, and mailed it to Marcus. If
anyone else wants it, please ask him directly.
