Hi,
I am working on the facade design for a project and comparing two glass options with frit. In a double glass, if we call the outermost surface '1' and the innermost surface '4', what difference does it have on the glass performance if we add frit on surface 2 vs surface 3? I am getting ready to test this out, but I wanted to see if there was already some study out there that had been done.

Window from LBL includes the ability to model frits. The glazing database includes examples of fritted glass properties. If the glazing isn't in the database, the manufacture has to provide the spectral properties.
