RE: [EnergyPlus_Support] Re: g-value vs. SHGC




I am not sure why you would need to dig into these NFRC/ISO documents to do simulations.  SHGC is not an input to EnergyPlus.  You have to specify the individual layers of glazing material and gases and EnergyPlus calculates and reports SHGC as an output (in the .eio file).  The Window 5 program is a big help for input data.

Hi Mahabir,
thank you for your reply!

The main problem is that the availability of ISO 15099 or the NRFC
200 for me here in Hamburg/Germany is plus/minus zero.

So I am looking for a resource which can help me...

If there is anybody who knows how to get one of these standards
through the WWW ;-)
I would be very glad.

Thank you in advance,
Konstantin
