Hi Achim,

enclosed you´ll find a very interesting publication concerning the current
state of implementation of EPBD into national laws ....

Best Regards,
Gunter

Hi Gunter,

thanks for the angle clarifications (the term "cut off" is quite widely
accepted with the definition you gave, I think. However, we do use "solar
altitude" for the "projected angle", usually ... is there any significant
difference? I couldn't find what difference you see, from the sketch).
However, I totally agree that explicit treatment of all angles would
simplify any discussions. It would probably be quite a bit clear(er), what
is assumed for the calcs.

What you write about DIN V 18599 is interesting. Do you have any information
on other countries in this regard? I have heard of ideas to have an
"accepted EPBD" calculation tool for Europe ... for my understanding of the
EPBD and the freedom of individual countries in its implementation, this is
not really possible, is it? It would be interesting, of course.

Mit freundlichen Grüssen / Best regards

Achim Geissler

2) Defintion of "profile angle e":
The profile angle e is defined as the projection of sun heigt angle a
into a vertical plain, which is normal to the facade (see attached picture).

Thus the profile angle can be interpreted as "sun heigt angle" if the sun 

azimuth angle j is not taken into account (e.g. for WIS-results or also

in ESP-r, optical database).

Again I propose an enhanced window model for ESP-r, which takes into

account ALL relevant angles (see attachment):

- blinde sloüpe angle

- sun real heigt angle a or alternatively sun height´s profile angle e

- sun azimuth angle j

Concerning the official EPBD-oriented planning / calculation tool in
Germany, 
called DIN V 18599, I can tell you following:

The DIN V 18599, part 2, defines a so called effectivce g-value, which MUST
be

calculated according to EN 13363, part 1 (simplified) or part 2 (detailled
and spectral,

but only for ONE angle of 45 degree).

The more sophisticated algorithm of ISO 15099 (implented in WIS) is NOT
allowed .......

So it is clear, that all the angle dependancies described above are not
valid for the

stupid German DIN V 18599 ......

Best regards,
Gunter
