The Development of Transparent Water Storage Envelopes (TWSE) through Theoretical Thermal and Optical Analyses
A Transparent Water Storage Envelope (TWSE) is an innovative curtain wall system being developed to improve the overall energy efficiency of commercial buildings by means of minimizing the cooling load in summer and heat loss in winter as well as remaining transparent for facilitating direct utilization of natural light in the daytime. Based on the theoretical thermal analysis, a Convection Baffle Layer (CBL) system was originated. A typical TWSE prototype with CBLs has been investigated, especially from the perspective of incorporating thermal mass benefit into thermal performance in summer. Several optical characteristics of TWSEs are discussed in this paper as a guide for more specific technical designs. This paper mainly reports on the development of TWSEs through theoretical analyses on its thermal performance and optical properties.
