These quatities pertain to monthly and yearly values, rather than to single days. Click to expand Incident Global Solar Radiation figure. Transmitted solar radiation. The solar radiation transmitted into a living space is less than the radiation that strikes the outside of a window because of losses associated with radiation reflected off of and absorbed by the glass. The manual presents data for windows with conventional, single-strength clear double glazing and a glass thickness of 0.125 in.
Tables contain values for unshaded and shaded windows.
Unshaded values are for windows with no external shading. Shaded values are for windows with no external shading. Shaded values are for windows shaded by a roof overhang. The roof overhang and window geometry are shown at the top of each data page. The overhang width and the vertical distance from the window to the overhang are given in dimensionless units for a window height of 1.0.
