PV SOL 3D import

Featured Replies

Good day,

I am using PVSOL premium 2019 (R13), is their a possibility that I could import a 3d model to the simulation? if yes, how can it be done and what are the acceptable file formats?

thank you in advance for your kind assistance.

Hi Paul,

yes, this is possible. At the moment PV*SOL premium can import the followig 3D formats:

In practice, it is a bit difficult to say which format works best. It all depends on the software that is exporting the files, and also how the 3D model itself is structured. Often obj and 3ds files work well.

Hope that helps. If you have further questions, please don't hesitate to ask.

Kind regards,

Martin

Hello Buro Happold

Sorry to hear that. There are limitations regarding size and textures but most certainly it is due to a model where the surfaces might not be closed e.g.

Could you send me your .obj file via private message here in the forum so we can have a look into it?

Thank you in advance and kind regards
Frederik

Hello Buro Happold

Sorry for the late reply. 220MB might be too big for my email box.

Might it be possible to .zip it with a password (7zip e.g.), send me a wetransfer link or similar via private message plus the password?
I understand if that might violate your privacy directives. Then we will find another way.

Kind regards
Frederik
