Hello,

Does anybody know how to define the optical properties of the window (trans., SHGC, etc.) based on the angle of incidence?

Thanks,

If you use WINDOW program from LBNL (windows.lbl.gov/software), it will give you option to create EnergyPlus file (IDF is one of E+ file options), which will enable angle-dependent calculations in E+.
