DOI: 10.1177/1420326x19862601
Abstract: Abstract The annual thermal evaluation of an open double-glazing unit (ODGU) is presented. The ODGU was modelled using two double-glazing configurations: DCC (clear glass + air + clear glass) and DCA (clear glass + air + absorbent glass). Numerical simulations were performed for… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/en13082016
Abstract: This paper investigates the effect of an existing facade’s construction (viz. clear/grey/solar film, with and without external shade) and orientation on the performance of low-e (hard coat)-based retrofit double glazing in a tropical climate. The… read more here.
