  2. 1. Optical Characterization and Energy Simulation of Glazing for High-Performance Windows

    Author : Andreas Jonsson; Arne Roos; Werner Platzer; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; energy simulations; antireflection coatings; dip-coating; optical measurements; spectrophotometer; integrating spheres; low-e windows; solar control windows; smart windows; control strategies; U value; g-value; Engineering physics; Teknisk fysik; Engineering Science; teknisk fysik med inriktning mot fasta tillståndets fysik;

    Abstract : This thesis focuses on one important component of the energy system - the window. Windows are installed in buildings mainly to create visual contact with the surroundings and to let in daylight, and should also be heat and sound insulating. READ MORE

  4. 2. Windows of Opportunities : The Glazed Area and its Impact on the Energy Balance of Buildings

    Author : Mari-Louise Persson; Arne Roos; Maria Wall; Ida Bryn; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : Engineering physics; building simulations; DEROB-LTH; glazing; window size; energy efficiency; glazed area; Teknisk fysik;

    Abstract : The impact of window area on the energy balance of a building was investigated by simulations in DEROB-LTH. The glazed area was varied in three types of buildings with different types of glazing and for several climates.One low energy house was compared to a less insulated house but identical in size and layout.
