Hey guys,

I have created a simple pipe with your help but still need to improve it to make it more like what I want. Any help on Gem file please? I want to make sure that the model I created in SU will be exportable to my software as a Gem file. Would you advice me on that?

Thanks

Many thanks TIG,
I have another question. I want to export the drawn pipe from SU to IES(Thermal modelling software)for the porpose of daylighting analysis. I need it as GEM file. How can I export that as GEM file?

Many thanks

Good Morning,

The path is actually a complex one. I have modelled the pipe but it is not exactly what I want and I am still struggling to draw a accurate one. I need to draw a line outside the red, green and blue axis as the pipe bends and at the same time changes its direction.Any line I draw stayed in axis. How can I draw a line out of these axis or alternatively after creating the tube how can I move that to the position out of the axis?

Regards
A

Thanks a lot for your help.

Many thanks for your quick respond. I found the following model from your website and this is roughly what I need to model. I need to know how to create similar tube in order to model a Sun pipe which is going to transfer day lighting into a room.
