modelling reflections from surrounding buildings

Hi

I'm doing a simple glare analysis to check the performance requirements
for blinds.

I'd like to include reflections from surrounding buildings in a worst
case scenario. Because I don't have a reliable city model, I was
thinking of creating a 'second sun', i.e. reflection, in the sky and
link the intensity of the second sun to the actual sun and reflection
properties of a window. I would locate the sun within the view through
the window.

I was thinking of adding another line into my sky file, however am not
totally sure how to exactly do this and was hoping that someone here
could help me with this.

Thanks

Chris
