Low heat loss double-glazed windows

Energy, 1987, vol. 12, issue 12, 1333-1336

Abstract: We propose a simple and relatively inexpensive method to reduce the heat loss of standard double-glazed windows. This result is achieved by the introduction of thin, transparent, convection-suppression, transverse slats between the glass panes and increasing the glazing gap so as to increase the conductive resistance. These windows have about 34 of the thermal resistance of evacuated windows at far lower cost and greater reliability.
