Test model for the fixed shade model
Information
This model tests window overhang and side fins. There are four instances of sha.
The first instance models an overhang only, the second models side fins and
an overhang, the third models side fins only and the fourth has neither an overhang
nor a side fin.

This example tests the window overhang model
Information
This example demonstrates the use of the overhang model.
It calculates the fraction of total window area that is exposed to the sun.
A similar example of an overhang model with more basic components is implemented in
Buildings.HeatTransfer.Windows.BaseClasses.Examples.Overhang.

Test model for the window
Information
This model demonstrates the implementation of a window model.
On the left hand side is a model for the combined convective and radiative heat
transfer on the outside facing side of the window.
In the top middle is the window model, and below is a model that
computes the solar radiation balance of the window. Output of the solar
radiation balance model are the absorbed solar heat flow rates, which are
input to the heat balance models.
On the right hand side are models for the inside surface heat balance.
As opposed to the outside surface heat balance models, these models are
implemented using separate components for the radiative balance and for the convective
balance. This has been done to allow separating radiation from convection,
which is required when the room model is used with room air heat balance models
that use computational fluid dynamics.
