GBlist: need help calcuating some passive solar numbers...



Howdy all!

I'm going to be building a passive solar house sometime next year. I'm in
early design phase right now.

I need some help calculating up the house. Basically I need to understand
the numbers that relate window area, thermal mass, and heating. I have a
good math background but don't know the formulas.

Can anyone out there help?

Thanks!

Ed
