A Novel Furnace Design Utilizing a Low Temperature Plastic Condensing Heat Exchanger
(1982-03)
The initial phase of a research and development program for the Consumers' Gas Co. and the Federal Department of Energy, Mines and Resources to design a condensing heat exchanger/gas fired residential air furnace has been ...
Thermal resistance measurement of glazing system edge-seals and seal materials using a guarded heater plate apparatus
(American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air-Conditioning Engineers, 1989)
In cold climates the increased edge-glass heat transfer at the perimeter of a sealed glazing unit creates a special problem. This is where condensed water and frost most readily occur. One mechanism contributing to edge-glass ...
Natural Convection in Sealed Glazing Units: A Review
(American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air-Conditioning Engineers, 1989)
In cold climates the augmented edge-glass heat transfer at the bottom of a glazing system creates a special problem. This is where condensed water and/or frost most readily occur. Two mechanisms determining the rate of ...
Glazing System U-Value Measurement Using a Guarded Heater Plate Apparatus
(American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air-Conditioning Engineers, 1988)
Precise heat transfer measurements have been carried out during the last 20 years using a guarded heater plate apparatus. This apparatus has been adapted and used over the last several years to perform U-value measurements ...
A Study Of Pane Spacing In Glazing Systems
(Solar Energy Society of Canada, 1989-06)
The selection of optimum pane spacing for glazing systems has been a topic of ongoing debate in the window manufacturing industry. Arguments are often based on speculation, intuition and results from tests not specifically ...
Effective U-values and Shading Coefficients of Preheat/Supply Air Glazing Systems
(1986-06)
Research is documented which makes use of a computer program called VISION, This computer program was developed specifically to provide a detailed analysis of heat transfer occurring in glazing systems. VISION was modified ...
Simulation And Measurement Of Windows With Metal Films Used In Conjunction With Teflon Inner Glazings
(1987-09)
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 ...
Thermal Resistance Measurement Of Glazing System Edge-seals
(1989-11)
The existing design of glazing system edge-seals creates increased edge-glass heat transfer at the perimeter of sealed glazing units. This thermal short-circuit caused by edge-seal conduction results in added mechanical ...
Simulation and Measurement of Windows with Low Emissivity Coatings Used in Conjunction with Teflon Inner Glazings
(1987-09)
Theoretical work has illustrated that highly infrared, transparent plastic films are well suited for use as intermediate glazings when used in conjunction with a low emissivity coating. Prototype glazing systems that ...
