Two tools within Radiance enable a) efficient annual performance evaluations of CFS, and b) accurate renderings of CFS despite the loss of spatial resolution associated with low-resolution BSDF datasets for inhomogeneous systems.  Validation, accuracy, and limitations of the methods are discussed.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><call-num><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">LBNL-4414E</style></call-num><custom1><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;Windows and Daylighting Group&lt;/p&gt;</style></custom1><custom2><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">LBNL-4414E</style></custom2></record></records></xml>
