What are the properties of low-E coatings?
What will be an ideal response?
The properties of low-E coatings are such that the transmission of solar radiation in the short wavelengths is high but drops off dramatically in the long wavelengths. The net result is that solar radiation is allowed to enter a space but is prevented from re-radiating back though the glazing unit. This allows the window unit to act as a collector of solar energy within the space.
