Description
Advances in window technologies and the desire to standardize the reporting of standard window heattransfer indices have necessitated the development of a comprehensive analytical procedure for calculating heat transfer through windows. This paper shows how complete window heat transfer can be considered as the areaweighted sum of the three window component areas: the center-of-glass area, the edge-of-glass area, and the frame area. Algorithms for calculating heat transfer through each of these areas and for combining these to calculate total window indices are presented.
