Abstract |
It is important to design windows in a reasonable way considering the performance characteristics of the elements of the window rather than
just to increase the thermal energy performance of the window. In this study, the Heat-transfer Coefficient as insulation performance of the
windows and together with the grade of the glass's SHGC (Solar Heat Gain Coefficient) were analyzed to relate to the energy efficiency
performance of the building by azimuth angle. Based on this basic study, the Heat-transfer Coefficient of windows and the SHGC rating of
glass were applied to the unit plan of apartment building, and the Heating and Cooling Demand were analyzed by azimuth angle. Apartment
plan types were divided into 2 types of Non-extension and extension of balcony. The designPH analysis data derived from the variant of the
Heat-transfer Coefficient and SHGC, were put into PHPP(Passive House Planning Package) to analyze precisely the energy efficiency(Heating
and Cooling Demands) of the building by azimuth angle. In addition, assuming the 'ㅁ' shape layout, energy efficiency performance and
potential of PV Panel installation also were analyzed by floors and azimuth angle, reflecting the shading effects by surrounding buildings. As
the results of the study, the effect of Heat Gain by SHGC was greater than Heat Loss due to the Heat-transfer Coefficient. So it is more
effective to increase SHGC to satisfy the same Heating Demand, and increasing SHGC made possible to design windows with low
Heat-transfer Coefficient. It was also revealed that the difference in annual Heating and Cooling Demands between the low, mid and high
floor households is significantly high. In addition to it, the installation of PV Panel in the form of a shading canopy over the window
reduces the Cooling Load while at the same time producing electricity, and also confirmed that absolute thermal energy efficiency could not
be maximized without controlling the thermal bridge and ventilation problems as important heat loss factors |
