    • A Correlation to Quantify Convective Heat Transfer Between Vertical Window Glazings 

      Wright, John L. (American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air-Conditioning Engineers, 1996)
      Several correlations have been used in recent years for the purpose of calculating convective, centre-glass heat transfer rates across gas-filled interpane window cavities. These correlations are examined and their background ...
    • Flow visualization of natural convection in a tall, air-filled vertical cavity 

      Wright, John L.; Jin, H.; Hollands, K. G. T.; Naylor, David (Elsevier, 2006-03-01)
      Natural convection of air in a tall vertical cavity was studied using a smoke patterns and interferometry. Experiments covered Rayleigh numbers of 4850 < Ra < 54,800 and aspect ratio A ≈ 40. Secondary cells were noted at ...
    • Natural Convection in Sealed Glazing Units: A Review 

      Wright, John L.; Sullivan, Harry F. (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 ...
    • A two-dimensional numerical model for natural convection in a vertical, rectangular window cavity 

      Wright, John L.; Sullivan, Harry F. (American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air-Conditioning Engineers, 1994-12-31)
      It is common for sealed glazing units to exhibit condensation problems when operated in cold climates. Condensation often forms along the perimeter of the exposed surface of the indoor glazing because of the thermal short ...
