Calculating Center-Glass Performance Indices of Glazing Systems with Shading Devices
(American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air-Conditioning Engineers, 2008)Building energy consumption and loads are strongly influ-enced by solar gain and heat transfer through the centre-glass area of windows. Methods have been devised to calculate the corresponding energy performance indices ... -
Calculating Center-Glass Performance Indices of Windows
(American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air-Conditioning Engineers, 1998)Building envelope performance is strongly influenced by solar gain and heat transfer through windows. The majority of this energy gain or loss passes through the center-glass area of the glazing system. Various methods ... -
Calculating Center-Glass Performance Indices of Windows with a Diathermanous Layer
(American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air-Conditioning Engineers, 2006)The fenestration chapter of the 2005 ASHRAE Hand-book—Fundamentals (ASHRAE 2005) has long included methods for determining the U-factor and solar heat gain coef-ficient (SHGC), or window performance indices, using the ... -
A Simplified Analysis of Radiant Heat Loss Through Projecting Fenestration Products
(American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air-Conditioning Engineers, 2001)Current window analysis algorithms can deal with many features, including low-e coatings and substitute fill gases. These methods were developed for products with planar glazings. Results can be generated for projecting ...
