[EnergyPlus_Support] Three glass glazing with extra foward mounted glass screen





Dear Collegues,

I would like your thoughts on how to model a 3-ply complex glazing with external slatted blind, where a forth (well ventilated) protective glass screen sit in front of it all on the very outside.

I have all the IGDB data on both the external screen as well as the 3-ply system and the slatted blinds. 

As e+ doesn't handle slatted blinds well as interpane blindes regarding it's posittion in that setup and is restricted by max 3 pane systems, I'm thinking of modelling it as a normal 3 pane system with external blinds and then construction an external transparent surface in front of the window.

I remember that one can set the transmission and relection properties of such an external surface. On the one hand only diffuse radiation will hit my window as expected, but on the other hand I will probably loose any spectral effects and cancle direct beam completely.

Perhaps I should adjust the properties of my slatted blind to incorporated the extra blocking effect of the external glass screen?

I'm sure you all have some ideas...

Kind regards,

Jean
