functionglassAbsExteriorIrradiationExteriorShading

Angular and hemispherical absorptance of each glass pane for exterior irradiation with exterior shading

Extends from Buildings.HeatTransfer.Windows.Functions.BaseClasses.partialWindowShadingRadiation (Partial function for window radiation property with shading device).

Information

This function computes angular and hemispherical absorptance of each glass pane for exterior irradiation with exterior shading. Pane 1 is facing outside and pane N is facing the room.

Inputs
