Glass collapse determined using a digital glass and air space meter
ANSI/NCSL Z540-2-1997 type B uncertainty for this test was 1.58%.
The test sample was installed in a vertical orientation, the exterior of the specimen was exposedto the cold side. The direction of heat transfer was from the interior (warm side) to the exterior(cold side) of the specimen. The ratings were rounded in accordance to NFRC 601, NFRC Unitand Measurement Policy. The data acquisition frequency is 5 minutes.
“This test method does not include procedures to determine the heat flow due to either airmovement through the specimen or solar radiation effects. As a consequence, the thermaltransmittance results obtained do not reflect performances which are expected from fieldinstallations due to not accounting for solar radiation, air leakage effects, and the thermal bridgeeffects that have the potential to occur due to the specific design and construction of thefenestration system opening. The latter can only be determined by in-situ measurements.Therefore, it is important to recognize that the thermal transmittance results obtained from thistest method are for ideal laboratory conditions and should only be used for fenestration productcomparisons and as input to thermal performance analyses which also include solar, air leakageand thermal bridge effects.”
