I found that if I change the properties in the material database for the single grazing, namely ” the solar direct tran” ,  “solar reflec out”, “solar reflect in”, nothing changes for the simulation result. Only if I change properties in the optical database ,namely”direct trn” “reflct” “abs” that can affect the simulation result. Am I right?
Yes, the properties "trans" and "abs" ("refl") for transparent materials are taken from the optics database. The property "eps" (long wave emissivity), the geometry (i.e. the layer dimensions) and the thermal properties (thermal capacity and thermal conductivity) are taken from the materials database entry.
> 2. For the RES file, “solar entering the zone” is the summation of transmissivity (the parameter  in optical database) multiplies the global irradiance for each glazing surface. What is “solar absorbed in zone” ? I checked that it is not the summation of absorptivity (the parameter in optical database) multiplies the global irraiance for each glazing. It also can be noticed that “ solar absorbed in zone” is less than “solar entering the zone” in all the test I did.
"solar absorbed" is that part of entering solar radiation that is not re-reflected directly back out of the zone.
> 3. When I try to get the solar energy that passes through the glazing and then absorbed by the floor , I extracted the information from ” SW radiation(inside)” , it seems that this parameter is very large and obviously not equal to the absorptivity of the floor multiplies the global irradiance to the floor(how to get this parameter ?). And for the glazing "SW radiation(inside)" divided by the irradiance is not the absorptivity I gave .What is “SW radiation(inside)” means exactly?
Are you writing out the values "per m2"? SW (short wave) radiation inside should be closely correlated to radiation hitting the given surface and transmission of the transparent material (not absorption).
