Re: [EnergyPlus_Support] Window with/without surface shading attached

[Rob Hitchcock <RJHitchcock@xxxxxxx>]

Where is your shading surface located relative to the window, and what 
is it's surface area?  What is the reflectance of your shading surface?

Shading surfaces can reflect solar onto a window, as well as shade the 
window from solar, depending on the overall geometry of your model.
