Abstract
An algorithm has been developed for the determination of both incidence-angle dependent radiative properties and wavelength averaged properties of glazing systems based on simple performance indicators. First, the results are obtained by using a computer code that applies statistical methods, multiple correlations for data treatment and a mathematical approach to obtain the optical properties from the spectral values. Then, simulations are carried out using the comparative test described in ANSI/ASHRAE Standard 140/2011 [1] for a base case, showing the adequacy of the algorithm for different glazing systems.
