Glass Application in Solar Energy Technology
Despite the abundance of solar radiation, significant energy losses occur due to scattering, reflection, and thermal dissipation. Glass mitigates these losses by functioning as a
Utilizing Solar-reflective Film on Window Glazing to Reduce
In field experiment, solar-reflective films reduce TMRT by an average of 0.7°C and peak by 1.5°C, and also cutting down short-wave radiation by 58% during the daytime.
Managing Solar Reflections from the | Facade Tectonics Institute
How a building reflects solar energy was a topic that traditionally did not receive serious scrutiny during building design and permitting. Most regulations and guidelines that did exist were vague.
