Maximum Solar Heat Gain Factor in Air Conditioning Systems Formulas

Maximum solar heat gain factor is the fraction of solar radiation admitted through a window or door either transmitted directly or absorbed, and subsequently released as heat inside a home. And is denoted by SHGF. Maximum Solar Heat Gain Factor is usually measured using the Btu (th) per Hour per Square Foot for Heat Flux Density. Note that the value of Maximum Solar Heat Gain Factor is always negative.
