Account for Material Emissivity in Longwave Temperature Map #364

@chriswmackey

Description

@chriswmackey

Right now, the thermal maps assume that the emissivity of the occupant is the same as all surfaces, making it difficult to study the impact of low-e materials directly on the MRT experienced by occupants.

I should at least account for this using an emissivity weighting factor as discussed here:
