Hi Srishtri,

I suggest looking at the WindowProperty:FrameAndDivider and
FenestrationSurface:Detailed topics in the Eplus input/output reference
documentation. You can find an example of these inputs in the file
AirflowNetwork_MultiZone_SmallOffice.idf.

Chris,

I have tried the option to link with Window via Construction:WindowDataFile,
it works fine with the windows with frame and glass but with curtain glazing
there are problems in modeling the window in therm and importing it in
energy plus(This is the reason why i was asking to directly model it in
Energy Plus in my first mail itself.)

Thanks for the other suggestion of doing it in window and manually
transferring the values into Energy Plus model, I will try that out and get
back soon.

Thanks Again,
Srishti.
India.
