Numerical Analysis of Window Structure Seating Depth Effects on Surface Temperature and Linear Thermal Transmittance

Abstract:

The paper deals with effect of window structure seating depth in window lining on the deformation of thermal field represented by the change in surface temperatures and thermal coupling coefficient. Alternative depths of window structure seating are analysed by the numerical experiment using the computer simulation of thermal field. The objective of analysis is to optimize the window structure seating depth in the existing experimental wall. The effect of deformation amount of thermal field of analyzed contact on the course of surface temperatures and thermal coupling coefficient of the binding has also been analysed.
