Designers are increasingly using high-performance glazing and shading systems for improved fenestration energy performance. One result of this trend is the added complexity of evaluating the long-term energy performance of fenestrations. The most serious problem is in fenestrations that have angularly selective solar-optical properties. The author describes a procedure for determining the angle-dependent solar radiant heat gain and other optical properties of single- and multiple-pane fenestrations with or without gas fills and with coatings applied to one or more of the glazing surfaces. He describes an extension of this procedure for dealing with complex, angularly selective fenestrations systems.
