Hi,

I am modelling a side of a building that is heated by the sun during the day.

I am using the solar ray tracing function of fluent.

A second building obscures some of the solar rays for part of the day.

Is it possible to insert a UDF to simulate this building?

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks.
