Optical Properties
Created by: RomainNouvel
Optical properties (reflectance, transmittance, emittance, absorptance etc...) are presently spread off in different objects of the Material Module (Construction and Glazing), with different level of details (distinction hemispherical/normalIncidence in Glazing). For more readibility and flexibility, it would be interesting to pick out all optical properties and gather them in a single object "OpticalProperties", possibly assigned to Construction or LayerComponent. In this case, the specification of a "GlazingObject", hybrid object between a layer and material, would not be required anymore. Instead, we could only distinguish Materials between Gas and SolidMaterial. The transparence characteristic would come only from the OpticalProperties...
