Author(s) : BERKOZ E., YILMAZ Z.

Type of article: Article

Summary

SETS OUT A NOVEL METHOD OF DETERMINING THE OPTIMUM OVER-ALL HEAT TRANSFER COEFFICIENTS FOR THE OPAQUE COMPONENTS OF A BUILDING ENVELOPE WITH RESPECT TO ORIENTATION, WINDOW CHARACTERISTICS AND TRANSPARENCY RATIO. THE METHOD IS BASED ON THE COMFORT VALUES OF THE INTERNAL SURFACE TEMPERATURES OF THE FACADE ELEMENTS. THE INTERNAL SURFACE TEMPERATURES OF THE TRANSPARENT COMPONENTS ARE CALCULATED INITIALLY ASSUMING WINDOW CHARACTERISTICS AND CLIMATIC CONDITIONS. THE INTERNAL SURFACE TEMPERATURES FOR THE OPAQUE COMPONENTS CAN BE CALCULATED FROM THE CORRESPONDING SURFACE TEMPERATURES OF THE TRANSPARENT SECTIONS, THE TRANSPARENCY RATIOS AND THE COMFORT VALUE OF THE INTERNAL SURFACE TEMPERATURES OF THE FACADE ELEMENTS. (INT. BUILD. SERV. ABSTR., GB., 23, N 2, 1988, 30, 88-00614.
