Fenestration devices for energy conservation—I. Energy savings during the cooling season

M.R. Brambley and S.S. Penner

Energy, 1979, vol. 4, issue 1, 1-25

Abstract: Equations are presented for estimating heat transfer through seven types of fenestrations using the properties of the shading devices and the conditions of the interior and exterior environments. The results have been employed to determine energy savings during the cooling season for buildings located in the transition climatic region of San Diego County. Life-cycle costs for installing various types of shading devices are estimated on the assumption that the shading devices are removed during the heating season or else have no effect on heating-season requirements.
