Mutual shadings

[raul.martin]

Good moorning, 

I am working in a project with unlimited sheds an I have a question regarding the mutual shadings.

In the orientation tab, when I click into "show optimization" I have 3,4 % of shadings loss. However, when running the simulation I find 2,97 % in the loss diagram. Why do I have that difference ?

Hi ! The above evaluation is idealized it does not assume a complex meteo data, but a clear sky day. Since the shading factors are different for the diffuse and direct component, once you put it into a realistic situation with varying diffuse and direct, you may get different results.
