Optimal sun radiation model with Parametric Helix mass

First step of my personal green super tall bldg, I am posting how to find optimal sun radiation model thru my parametric helix mass.

This is the helix mass for solar testing.

It has a relationship by angle value between eclipse profiles on each level so by putting different value it is changed to below image.



And, even each eclipse profile could be changed.


And, applied each cases by angle value on solar radiation map and could see which model would have the optimally comfortable interior air quality.


Model which has more blue tone area would be a better model for heat gain / loss.

Interior version of google map scanning camera

we might use this for architectural renovation projects w/o big efforts of building up whole existing condition only if it can scan and tranlate to actural building information model.
