Pull Request Description

Closes #1701. Spreadsheet for interior shading and insect screen derivations: WindowShading.xlsx

Interior shading

New inputs that can be used to default the interior shading summer/winter fractions:

  • Type (blinds/shades/curtains, dark/medium/light)
  • SummerFractionCovered and WinterFractionCovered
  • BlindsSummerClosedOrOpen and BlindsWinterClosedOrOpen (closed, half open, open)

Defaults are calculated based on data from ASHRAE 1311-RP; see the attached spreadsheet above for derivations.

Exterior shading

New inputs that can be used to default the exterior shading summer/winter fractions:

  • Type (solar screens/films, trees, etc.)
  • SummerFractionCovered and WinterFractionCovered

Defaulting is based on either assumptions from MulTEA or engineering judgment.

Insect screen

New inputs that can be used to specify, or default, insect screen summer/winter fractions:

  • Location (exterior or interior)
  • SummerFractionCovered and WinterFractionCovered
  • SummerShadingCoefficient and WinterShadingCoefficient

Defaults are calculated based on data from ASHRAE 1311-RP; see the attached spreadsheet above for derivations.
