Grasshopper

algorithmic modeling for Rhino

design the facade optimized for comfort by geco/ecotect/winair

Hi

I want to design the facade of architecture by using an environmental algorithm.

I tried calculating CFD of the model of rhino and grasshopper by geco, ecotect, and winair. 

And then, I was able to import the result from ecotect into grasshopper.

But finally, I want to make optimize the facade for comfortable design by the result of the CFD and galapagos component. 

And I can't circulate the flow (grasshopper → ecotect → winair → ecotect → grasshopper) ⇔ galapagos. 

Because it is impossible to take in winair to grasshopper, I think.

Could you tell me your good idea to solve it ?

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

It's not possible to do what you want for one reason :

To do an analyse with winair you need to change the years of your clock computer to 2006(license problem). Geco only work with 2013 set, and finally galapagos can't change the years of your clock computer for each analyse. I don't know if it's clear

Hi,

Oh, it was so indeed...

Licensing problems it is bigger than the technical side.

I'll give up this way.

Thanks!!

yes,you can.modify the timer in the winair could solve this problem perfectly.
