Spectrally Selective Window Glazings
Steven G. Liescheidt, P.E., CSI-CCS, CCPR.
Overview
Spectrally selective glazing is window glass that
permits some portions of the solar spectrum to enter a building while blocking
others. This high-performance glazing admits as much daylight as possible while
preventing transmission of as much solar heat as possible.
In this course the student will learn about the
low-emissivity spectrally selective fenestration glazing benefits, energy
savings potential, maintenance considerations, payback potential, applications,
codes, standards and warranties. In addition, case studies are presented to
help the student see the principles of low-e glazing put into practical use.
The student is expected to read and review the material contained
in Spectrally Selective Glazings – DOE/EE-0173.
The
student must take a multiple-choice quiz consisting of twenty (20) questions at the end of this course to obtain PDH credits.
