    <font size="-1"><font face="Arial">Rohini you are right -- Sun space
        does allow for solar transmission through windows if an interior
        wall belongs to such a sun space -- that's considering DOE
        2.2.(eQuest)<br>
        But, I wonder if the split flux method for daylight calcs is a
        good choice anyways? . . . .Perhaps it's good for getting a hang
        on the energy savings, if you have daylight sensors?!<br>
        <br>
        I think sun space will be a good quick and dirty way that Vikram
        may be looking for if he already has a basic shell chalked out
        or can create the shell and internal loads quickly.<br>
