  The high-brightness electron beam at the Photo Injector Test facility at DESY in Zeuthen (PITZ) is being prepared for use in dosimetry experiments and for the study of biological effects in thin samples. This is part of the preparations for FLASHlab@PITZ which is going to be an R&D platform for FLASH and VHEE radiation therapy and radiation biology. These studies require precise information on the electron beam parameters downstream of the exit window, such as the scattering angle and the energy spectrum of the particles as well as the thermal load on the exit window. A Titanium window is compared with a DESY Graphite window design. Heat deposition in the window by a single 22MeV / 1nC electron bunch of various size, its scattering and energy spectrum due to passage through the window are calculated by means of the Monte Carlo program FLUKA. Time resolved temperature profiles, as generated by the passage of 1ms long electron pulse trains with up to 4500 single pulses, each of them between 0.1 and 60ps long, are calculated with a self-written FEM code.
