Calculation times are now much shorter
With this update the designer can provide normative values much more easily. During the positioning of luminaires the results appear much more quickly on the calculation surface. So the user can evaluate the illuminance and the uniformity without having to carry out a complete calculation.
Instead of selecting the whole building, it is now possible to select one single room or one light scene for calculation. Only the room or the floor of the building which is currently visible on the screen is calculated.
Enter values directly in 2D and 3D view
Together with the update it has been possible to improve room-based design. The values can now be entered manually when creating contours and objects in the 2D or 3D view. With DIALux evo 7.1 it is now also possible to determine the value range for the ceiling height. This information can be found in the tool »room summary«. The exact mounting positions of the luminaires are documented in the luminaire layout plan. The positioning of a suspended ceiling for different roof constructions can be improved.
DIALux is the world’s leading software for the planning, calculation and visualisation of light. DIALux is used by a community of over 680 000 users and is available free of charge in 25 languages. All renowned luminaire manufacturers offer digital product data for planning in DIALux. More information at [url=http://www.dial.de/en/dialux]www.dial.de/en/dialux[/url]
