 Thermal performance of an architectural window with chemically deposited SnS CuxS solar control coatingC.A. Estrada-Gasca, G. Alvarez-Garcia and P.K. Nair Renewable Energy, 1993, vol. 3, issue 6, 683-690 Abstract: A mathematical model enabling the prediction of the thermal performance of solar control glazings employing chemically deposited solar control coatings with or without a transparent protective polymer coating is presented. Differential energy balance for the glazing is set up assuming one-dimensional steady state case for normal incidence of air mass 2 solar radiation and by considering conductive heat transfer within the glazing and convective and radiative heat transfer into the interior and exterior of the building. Using the specific example of the optical properties of the already reported SnS CuxS solar control coatings, the redistribution of the absorbed component of the solar radiation is evaluated for constant convective heat transfer coefficient and temperature in the interior and for exterior temperatures in the 0–50°C range. The results yield shading coefficient versus exterior temperature curves for two specific SnS CuxS coatings without and with a protective transparent varnish and offering transmittance in the visible region of 27 and 21%.
