چکیده
Smart window designs have emerged as a means of providing dynamic regulation solar energy and daylight, enhancing indoor comfort, achieving building conservation. We evaluated novel design that integrated thermotropic (TT) material Transparent Insulation Material (TIM) present the investigation in this paper. The Parallel Slat TIM (PS-TIM) structure contained within unit provides extra thermal resistance helps to redirect daylight. TT material, which is applied slats, automatic daylight adjustment. Firstly, PS-TIM system has been characterised thermally optically. Then, comprehensive approach including both simulation packages was used predict performance. effects geometry (i.e. slat spacing tilt angle) features transition temperature optical properties) on performance were investigated. results show use with carefully selected can simultaneously improve efficiency (up 22% saving when compared conventional double-glazed (DG) window) attain homogenous distribution an average Useful Daylight Illuminance, UDI 500–2000 lux, 52.2%. It also found geometric configurations significant influence horizontally placed slats performs better than tilted terms balance between availability. This research guidance development suggestions for integration buildings.
