Nodal network and CFD simulation of airflow and heat transfer in double skin facades with blinds (2008)
Journal Article
Hanby, V., Cook, M., Infield, D., Ji, Y., Loveday, D., & Mei, L. (2008). Nodal network and CFD simulation of airflow and heat transfer in double skin facades with blinds. Building Services Engineering Research and Technology, 29(1), 45-59. https://doi.org/10.1177/01436244080290010401

The paper describes a modelling study of heat transfer and buoyancy-driven airflow in double skin facades consisting of a glass outer layer, a control device (venetian blind) and a double-glazed inner skin. The modelling study was based on two approa... Read More about Nodal network and CFD simulation of airflow and heat transfer in double skin facades with blinds.

CFD modelling of naturally ventilated double-skin facades with venetian blinds (2008)
Journal Article
Ji, Y., Cook, M., Hanby, V., Infield, D., Loveday, D., & Mei, L. (2008). CFD modelling of naturally ventilated double-skin facades with venetian blinds. Journal of Building Performance Simulation, 1(3), 185-196. https://doi.org/10.1080/19401490802478303

This study describes computational fluid dynamics (CFD) modelling of naturally ventilated double-skin facades (DSFs) with Venetian blinds inside the facade cavity. The 2D modelling work investigates the coupled convective, conductive and radiative... Read More about CFD modelling of naturally ventilated double-skin facades with venetian blinds.
