Abstract

Previous work has shown that highly infrared transparent plastic films are well suited for use as inner glazings when used in conjunction with a low emissivity coating. Thermal resistance measurements of a set of glazing systems incorporating gold or copper coatings plus Teflon intermediate glazings are reported. The same glazing systems were simulated using a computer program called VISION. The agreement between the two sets of results was found to be very good.
