Modelling and simulation of a ventilated double window

Evaluation of the performance indices of a ventilated double window through experimental and analytical procedures: SHGC-values

“…The description of this tool can be found in Carlos et al [15]. The experimental campaign was done in real weather data conditions being the used windows described in Section 4.…”

“…For different compositions of the ventilated double window different results were obtained in function of the incident solar radiation. A simulation tool was developed and validated to analyze the performance of such system [15]. This is a semi-stationary tool.…”

Thermal performance of a double pane window with a solar control coating for warm climate of Mexico

“…Pérez-Grande et al [15] reported the total heat rate into the building for double glazed facades considering a height of the building L = 15 m and a width of the channel d = 0.9 m. The results show that the air velocity through the channel at 6 m/s reduced the heat load into the building by a factor larger that 1.5 compared with the free convection case. Carlos et al [16] predicted the thermal performance of a ventilated double window; the results were compared with the results of the COMIS software and with the experimental values. The double window studied consider different combinations of glazing: single glaze at the outer window and single (system 1) or double glaze (system 2) at the inner window.…”

Modeling a triple-glazed supply-air window

“…A non-sequential method seems necessary but supposes to model the heat transfer between airflow and panes of glass with a different approach. That was the choice of Carlos et al [22] who used correlations defined in ISO standard [25] and based on a Wright's study [26]. This model assumed that the heat received by the airflow from the "warm" pane of glass and the heat received by the "cool" pane of glass from the airflow are expressed with an identical heat transfer coefficient.…”
