<p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'>The best way (currently) to
supply information about your windows for use in energy simulation programs
would be to generate DOE-2 and EnergyPlus report files from WINDOW
program. One caveat is that DOE-2 report file cannot be generated for the
real window frames, but you can use average U-factor for your actual frames and
create a generic frames that can be used in DOE-2 report. That way you
can circumvent this deficiency in DOE-2 functionality. EnergyPlus report
does not have this deficiency. For other simulation programs, it is hard
to say what they would need, but generally the following is important
information about a window (all included in EnergyPlus report file):<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>Hi all,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>My company is looking at making available some BIM models as
well as compiling data on our windows to help energy modelers analyze our
windows and glass into buildings.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>The ones that seem most obvious to me are:<o:p></o:p></p>
<ul style='margin-top:0in' type=disc>
<li class=MsoNormal style='mso-list:l2 level1 lfo5'>COG U-factor<o:p></o:p></li>
<li class=MsoNormal style='mso-list:l2 level1 lfo5'>Full Frame U-factor<o:p></o:p></li>
<li class=MsoNormal style='mso-list:l2 level1 lfo5'>COG SHGC/SC (do people prefer
one or are both useful?)<o:p></o:p></li>
<li class=MsoNormal style='mso-list:l2 level1 lfo5'>Full Frame SHGC<o:p></o:p></li>
<li class=MsoNormal style='mso-list:l2 level1 lfo5'>VT<o:p></o:p></li>
<li class=MsoNormal style='mso-list:l2 level1 lfo5'>Thickness<o:p></o:p></li>
</ul>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>I feel like some software requires more detailed inputs, so
I’ve come up with the additional categories:<o:p></o:p></p>
<ul style='margin-top:0in' type=disc>
<li class=MsoNormal style='mso-list:l3 level1 lfo8'>Visible Transmittance by
color <o:p></o:p></li>
<li class=MsoNormal style='mso-list:l3 level1 lfo8'>Visible Reflectance Front
and Back<o:p></o:p></li>
<li class=MsoNormal style='mso-list:l3 level1 lfo8'>Solar Transmittance<o:p></o:p></li>
<li class=MsoNormal style='mso-list:l3 level1 lfo8'>Solar Reflectance
Front and Back<o:p></o:p></li>
<li class=MsoNormal style='mso-list:l3 level1 lfo8'>UV transmittance<o:p></o:p></li>
</ul>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Please feel free to add and comment on this list. Our
purpose of providing this data is to make consultants’ lives easier so
let me know if you think of anything that would be helpful. Thanks for your
input!<o:p></o:p></p>
