[Equest-users] Translucent Glazing in equest

[Nicholas Caton]

To clarify, do you mean “from clear to diffuse?”



Whether eQuest can explicitly simulate or sufficiently approximate
light-scattering fenestration systems may depend on your ultimate purpose.
Are you asking specifically to capture a difference in daylighting control
behavior, in distinction from a clear glass system?



If not, capturing the thermal behavior should be do-able.

I can match the three value, but I can not find the way to change the glass
from clear to translucent .

Farid:



'What are the properties of Kalwall? If you can match U-value, shading
coefficient, and visible transmittance, should be no reason you can't
simulate it.

Hi,

Does anybody knows, how I can model a kalwall (translucent material) in
equest? In the glazing wizard, I have no choice of translucent material.
All I have is clear or tinted.



Thanks,

Farid
