Presentation / Conference
Ji, Y., Cook, M., Hanby, V., Infield, D., Loveday, D., & Mei, L. (2007, September). CFD modelling of double-skin facades with venetian blinds. Presented at The 10th International Building Performance Simulation Association (IBPSA) Conference and Exhibition, Beijing, China

This paper describes CFD modelling of Double Skin Façades (DSF) with venetian blinds inside the façade cavity. The 2-D modelling work investigates the coupled convective, conductive and radiative heat transfer through the DSF system. The angles of th...

The influence of blinds on temperatures and air flows within ventilated double-skin façades (2007)
Presentation / Conference
Mei, L., Loveday, D., Infield, D., Hanby, V., Cook, M., Ji, Y., …Bates, J. (2007, June). The influence of blinds on temperatures and air flows within ventilated double-skin façades. Presented at Clima 2007 WellBeing Indoors, Helsinki, Finland

Ventilated façades have become an increasingly employed feature in the design of low energy buildings over recent years in that they offer the attractive features of a conventional glass façade but without the thermal disadvantages. These façades con... Read More about The influence of blinds on temperatures and air flows within ventilated double-skin façades.
