[EnergyPlus_Support] Report Variable Definitions

["Kristin Field" <fieldkm@xxxxxxxxx>]

Can anyone tell me if there is a document that defines each report 
variable?  I couldn't find that in the I/O Reference or the 
Engineering Reference.  There are some report variables for which I'm 
not sure exactly what is meant just by looking at the name.

Specifically, I'm not sure what is meant by:

"Blind/Glass System Beam-Beam Solar Transmittance"
(what is "beam-beam?" Is visible light being transmitted 
for "transmittance," or is it heat, total energy?  The number is 
dimensionless in the .csv output - what is the numerator, and what is 
the denominator?)
"Blind/Glass System Diffuse-Diffuse Solar Transmittance"
(what is "diffuse-diffuse?")
"Window System Solar Transmittance"
(what is the window "system?" - does it include the frame and 
dividers? the blinds?  As above, what are the numerator and 
denominator for this dimensionless output?)

Any help is appreciated.  Thanks!
