Development of Solar-Optical Models for Energy Performance Analysis of Draperies in Complex Fenestration Systems
Huang, Ned Y.T. (University of Waterloo, 2018-02-21)Window coverings have been used for many years to provide protection from undesired environmental conditions and to regulate indoor conditions. Models for complex fenestration systems (CFS), a term coined in the early 90’s ... -
An Examination of Keyes Universal Chart: 50 Years Later
Wright, John L.; Huang, Ned Y. T.; Collins, Michael R. (American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air-Conditioning Engineers, 2016-01)From the late 1940's to the late 1960's, significant efforts were made by ASHVE and then ASHRAE to evaluate and quantify the impact of window shading. In the context of the now defunct Shading Coefficient, well known ... -
Off-Normal Solar-Optical Performance of Pleated Drapery: Simulation versus Measurement
Wright, John L.; Collins, Michael R.; Huang, Ned Y. T. (American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air-Conditioning Engineers, 2016-01)In recent years, significant advances have been made in modeling fenestration with shading attachments. Most shading devices have great potential for reducing both peak building cooling load and annual energy consumption ... -
Thermal Resistance of a Window with an Enclosed Venetian Blind: A Simplified Model
Wright, John L.; Collins, Michael R.; Huang, Ned Y. T. (American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air-Conditioning Engineers, 2008)Solar gain has a strong influence on building energy consumption and peak cooling load. Venetian blinds are routinely used to control solar gain. Software based on 1-D models is available to accurately predict the thermal ... -
Thermal Resistance of a Window with an Enclosed Venetian Blind: Guarded Heater Plate Measurements
Wright, John L.; Huang, Ned Y. T.; Collins, Michael R. (American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air-Conditioning Engineers, 2006)Window solar gain is known to have a strong influence on building energy consumption and peak cooling load. Venetian blinds are routinely used to control solar gain. Software based on one-dimensional models is available ...
