3.3 Estimation <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong>rmal energy gain <strong>and</strong> loss through<br />
building fenestration<br />
3.3.1 Characterization <strong>of</strong> heat gain <strong>and</strong> loss through <strong>glazing</strong><br />
The <strong>solar</strong> heat gain through <strong>glazing</strong> systems depends on many factors such as:<br />
• <strong>the</strong>rmal <strong>and</strong> optical properties <strong>of</strong> <strong>glazing</strong> systems,<br />
• <strong>the</strong> current sun position in <strong>the</strong> sky,<br />
• degree <strong>of</strong> cloudiness,<br />
• external <strong>and</strong> internal shading devices,<br />
• shaded constructions attached to <strong>the</strong> building such as awnings <strong>and</strong> ro<strong>of</strong> overhangs,<br />
• detached shading surfaces such as trees <strong>and</strong> o<strong>the</strong>r buildings,<br />
• window shading devices such as screens, shutters, curtains <strong>and</strong> blinds,<br />
• window facings.<br />
The first parameters, i.e. <strong>the</strong> <strong>the</strong>rmal <strong>and</strong> optical properties <strong>of</strong> windows, are examined in<br />
great detail in <strong>the</strong> previous chapter. As mentioned before, <strong>the</strong> distribution <strong>of</strong> passive <strong>solar</strong><br />
gain strongly depends upon <strong>the</strong> time <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> day as well as <strong>the</strong> time <strong>of</strong> year. Graphs in Fig.<br />
3.19 <strong>and</strong> Fig. 3.20 present <strong>the</strong> daily <strong>and</strong> monthly differences between gain <strong>and</strong> loss energy<br />
through 1m 2 <strong>of</strong> balcony windows facing south.<br />
