Re: [EnergyPlus_Support] What is the difference between "WindowMaterial:Glazing" and "WindowMaterial:Glazing:Equivalent Layer"





I have added the window glazing properties in "WindowMaterial:Glazing" and the drape properties in "WindowMaterial:Drape:Equivalent Layer". But when I am trying to include both of them in "Construction" the drape material is not coming in the list for selection. Is it not possible to combine normal material with equivalent material in a construction?

Equivalent glazing is more flexible regarding function and positioning of shading...however it is more complicated to set up.

Hello,

Can anyone tell me the difference between "WindowMaterial:Glazing" and "WindowMaterial:Glazing: Equivalent Layer" in EnergyPlus? When I am defining a material in Equivalent layer it is not showing while defining a "Construction". Please help.

Thank you,
Amrita
