| Abstract |
Double glazed window system has been commonly used in buildings of today due to energy issue.?? Insulation performance of double glazed window system is influenced by many factors such as glass type, thermal breaker in frame, spacer and so on.??In buildings constructed recently, there have been many cases to improve the insulation performance of double glazed window system by using the low-e glass and thermal breaker made of poly-amide or azon.??However aluminum spacer still becomes a thermal bridge at which the heat loss and risk of inside surface condensation increase due to its high thermal conductivity.??As inside surface condensation may cause many problems, it should be prevented. ??Thus this study aims to evaluate the surface condensation on the double glazed window system with insulation spacer made of FRP(Fiber Reinforced Plastic).??Window systems of both swimming pool and residential unit in A residential complex located in Pusan are made the target of evaluation.??The lowest inside surface temperature is calculated by the two dimensional steady state heat transfer simulation.??It is determined whether the inside surface condensation may or may not occur under the vario |
