Minimizing thermal bridging through window systems in buildings of hot regions.
Author(s) : BEN-NAKHI A. E.
Type of article: Article
Summary
The present approach is based on an integrated 3D dynamic simulation. The theoretical background of the adopted approach is presented. The reliability of this approach in evaluating thermal bridges as well as its applicability to different geometric shapes is proved. Thermal bridging through typical window systems is significant and should be taken into account. Applicable construction for window systems are proposed.
