Transmissivity and absorptivity vary with both wave length of the; :
incident radiation and incident angle. Values of t and a for a single sheet ' . -
of the average ordinary drawn window glass are given in Table 12 for.a- ; standard distribution of solar energy.4 Values for two air-spaced sheefcyg
are also given. Normal incidence transmittance values for some coig&J monly-used types and combinations are given in Table 15. Some vanter-V
tion in these values can be expected in practice due to variations' in;:; manufacture and in solar energy distribution. However, a change1 inj?
transmissivity causes an approximately equal and opposite change lipj'-/
absorptivity. Hence, the total heal flow is not greatly altered. Trans-JS mittance data for other types of glass and various patterns of 8-in. glass|;

The small thermal resistance of the glass has been neglected; The heat flow rates are for a 75 F indoor temperature, an indoor surface conductance for convection/oi as given by Equation 3, anu an equivalent surface conductance for radiationas given by Equation 4. Indoor surfaces seen by. the glass are assumed to radiate'as a black body at room air temperature.

Example 8: Find-the .total heat gain at 10 a.m. sun time for a single unshaded Bheet of common window glass in a wall facing 18 deg east of south on August 1 at 50 deg north latitude. The indoor temperature is 75 F, the outdoor temperature is 83 F. Use clear atmosphere radiation values and = 4.0.
Solution: From Example 2, K is 0.557; hence, the angle of incidence, 0, is 56 deg 9min. From Example 4,Id -- 152.0,Id = 26.6. By interpolation in Table 12, rD is found to be 0.81, aD is 0.06; and ad are 0.79 and 0.06, respectively.
The heat gain due to transmitted solar radiation is
(q/A), = 152.0 X 0.81 + 26.6 X 0.79 = 144.1 Btu per (hr)(Bq ft).

Design Tables for Flat Glass
Tables 13 and 14 give design values of instantaneous rates of heat gain jor single unshaded cofnmon window glass for a solar declination of 18 deg.
.this corresponds to a nominal August 1 day. ' The tables are based upon
Th]Slar intensity values for-a clear atmosphere as given in Table 4. lable 13 represents the first bracketed term of Equation 2a; therefore, the yahies are dependent only upon values of I and t. Table 14 is the second
j1 Equation 2a, and is based, upon a 80 F indoor temperature and a i b temperature cycle, with a 95 F maximum as tabulated. The
w heat gain is the sum of the Table 13 and Table 14 values. In preparing able 14, convection and radiation heat exchange were' combined, and a ombmed surface conductance of 4.0 used. Corrections to be applied for
