Performance value terms
Ultraviolet (UV) Transmittance (Tuv, %) is the percentage of the incident UV component of the solar radiation in the wavelength range of 280 nm to 380 nm that is transmitted by the glass.
WINDOWS 101: EPISODE FIVE FACT SHEET Optical
At Berkeley Lab we maintain the International Glazing Database of glass properties storing transmittance and reflectance as a function of wavelength for more than 5,000 glass products.
Window Calculation Module: Engineering Reference — EnergyPlus 8.8
Properties for beam absorptance of the individual glass layers and screen/glass combination are derived in a similar fashion to the transmittance calculation described above.
Glass Transmission
Solar Transmittance value are calculated as described in section Weighting Factors. The data tables in both norms do not have equidistant data so that a trapezoidal weighting is applied.
Measuring The Daylight And Solar Energy Properties Of Glazing
The basic optical properties for the calculation of solar energy transmittance and daylight properties of glazing according to ISO 9050 and EN 410, are the reflectance and transmittance spectra of the
Spectral transmission of solar radiation by plastic and glass materials
In this paper we analyse the spectral transmission of solar radiation of widely used materials using the transmittance parameter. The measurements were performed on clear days, at 8
