Angular Transmittance Analysis of a Novel Thermotropic Material

الملخص EN

This paper uses inverse adding-doubling (IAD) method and Monte Carlo method for the simulation of the spectral angular transmittance of a novel kind of thermotropic material at different temperatures.

The results show that the collimated light takes the major part at the beginning of the switching process and the scattered light is negligible.

However, the scattered light increased to high above 80% of the total transmitted light with the largest angle distribution of scattered light about 30 degrees as temperature elevated.
