2. 1. Windows : Optical Performance and Energy Efficiency

   Author : Joakim Karlsson; A. Maccari; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Materials science; Materialvetenskap; Materials science; Teknisk materialvetenskap; Solid State Physics; fasta tillståndets fysik;

   Abstract : This thesis treats angle-resolved optical properties and the energy efficiency of windows. A theoretical evaluation of optical and thermal properties of windows is briefly surveyed and the energy performance of a large selection of windows, under different conditions, is examined. In particular, angle dependent optical properties are analysed. READ MORE

4. 2. VO2-based Thermochromic and Nanothermochromic Materials for Energy-Efficient Windows : Computational and Experimental Studies

   Author : Shuyi Li; Claes-Göran Granqvist; Gunnar Niklasson; Ivan Parkin; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; VO2; thermochromism; nanothermochromics; energy efficient windows; optical modeling; effective medium theory; thin film characterization; doping;

   Abstract : VO2-based films are thermochromic and exhibit high or low infrared transmittance when the temperature is below or above a critical temperature. The thermochromic switching is passive and reversible, and therefore VO2 based films are promising for energy-efficient window appli­cations. READ MORE

5. 3. Performance of Energy Efficient Windows and Solar Shading Devices

   Author : Tobias Rosencrantz; Avdelningen för Energi och byggnadsdesign; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

   Abstract : This Licentiate dissertation deals with windows and solar shading devices and how they could be designed and used to save energy for heating and cooling in buildings. Parametric studies using the dynamic energy simulation software ParaSol v 2.0 were performed for different windows and solar shading devices. READ MORE
