Guide to a three zone ESP-r to Radiance
test problem

This directory includes an ESP-r description
set for a simple building with three zones.
There are openings between each of the
zones which are highly transmission so that
you can see the `ignore fictitious` facility
in action.  As the ESP-r files are annotated
it should be a reasonable exercise to find
the mapping to the sets of radiance files.

The following is a list of the files and their
general contents:
e2r.xwd     :X window dump of e2r in use. 
first.con   :esp-r files for `first` zone
first.geo
first.obs
first.tmc
first.utl
mcon.db     :esp-r multilayer construction db.
middle.con  :esp-r files for `middle` room.
middle.geo
middle.tmc
middle.utl
opt.db      :esp-r optical database (cut down)
rad_box     :esp-r configuration file for the problem.
second.con  :esp-r files for `second` room.
second.geo
second.tmc
second.utl
std.opr     :esp-r operation file (dummy)
t1.*        :files related to an inside view (in first room)
t1.oct      :octree
t1.pic      :pic file
t1.rout     :outside portion of radiance description
t1.rrom     :inside portion of radiance description
t1.sky      :CIE sunny sky in May
t1.vp       :inside view point
t3.*        :files related to an outside view (from south-west)
t3.oct      :octree
t3.pic      :pic file
t3.rout     :outside description (actually all surfaces, but
             ordered from outside and without glass being
             an illuminance source) 
t3.sky      :same as t1.sky
t3.vp       :outside viewpoint
upgrade     :notes on changes to Radiance desktop


To test it out give the command:
e2r -file rad_box

Good Luck....
