Development and Evaluation of SHGC Measurement System for Cooling Energy Saving in Buildings

Article Preview

Abstract:

The purpose of this study is to develop the measurement system for SHGC that has the biggest effect on the cooling energy saving in buildings and prove the validity of the measurement result through the experiment using the device. In this study, solar simulator using artificial light source, external environment chamber that can control the external environmental condition and calorimetric chamber that can measure the amount of irradiance coming indoors by using heat flow meter were developed. In this study, it is considered to be possible to measure the SHGC of high performance glass, shading device, heat insulation film
