Solar heat gain on North exposure (inNorth Latitudes) or on South exposure (in South latitudes) consists primarily of diffuse radiation which is

essentially constant throughout the day. The solar heat gain values for this exposure are the average for the 12 hr period (6 a.m. to 6 p.m.). The
storage factors in Tables 7 thru 11 assume that the solar heat gain on the North (or South) exposure is constant.
