Building energy analysis using EC and PDLC based smart switchable window in Oman

• Building energy analysis using smart and static windows were performed in Oman. Electrochromic better while Daylight illuminance control was applied. PDLC sandwiched between silver coated glass even than EC. Worldwide consumption CO 2 emissions increase yearly the building industry contributes most out of all other sectors. The residential sector provides largest portion consumption. Reducing gains through elements envelope such as is a way to combat increasing Smart switchable glazing can contribute savings by adjusting its properties response user settings or an external stimulus. This study explored potential electrochromic (EC) polymer disperse liquid crystal (PDLC) against common window for results showed that displayed optical windows, with under daylight having highest total at 23.56% reduction compared single-glaze window. In configuration, inner pane double reduces further.
