    • Calculating Center-Glass Performance Indices of Windows 

      Wright, John L. (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 ...
    • A method for determining the effective longwave radiative properties of pleated draperies 

      Kotey, Nathan Amon; Wright, John L.; Collins, Michael R. (Taylor & Francis, 2011-10-01)
      Draperies, attached to fenestration, offer a cost-effective strategy in controlling solar gain since draperies have the potential to reduce building peak load and annual energy consumption. The performance of a drapery is ...
    • Methods for Calculating the Effective Longwave Radiative Properties of a Venetian Blind Layer 

      Yahoda, Darryl S.; Wright, John L. (American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air-Conditioning Engineers, 2004)
      Window solar gain can strongly influence building energy consumption, peak loads, and comfort. Shading devices are routinely used to control solar gain. The use of venetian blinds is particularly common. There is a strong ...
    • Methods for Calculating the Effective Solar-Optical Properties of a Venetian Blind Layer 

      Yahoda, Darryl S.; Wright, John L. (American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air-Conditioning Engineers, 2005)
      Window solar gain can strongly influence building energy consumption, peak loads, and comfort. Shading devices are routinely used to control solar gain. The use of venetian blinds is particularly common. There is a strong ...
    • Solar Absorption by Each Element in a Glazing/Shading Layer Array 

      Wright, John L.; Kotey, Nathan Amon (American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air-Conditioning Engineers, 2006)
      Window solar gain can strongly influence building energy consumption and peak cooling load. Shading devices such as venetian blinds, roller blinds, and drapes are routinely used to control solar gain. There is a strong ...
