The article focuses on determining the energy efficiency of the translucent structures of building envelope (TSBE) use with different lighting and thermal parameters. The expediency of replacing TSBE with more modern ones with higher thermal resistance and lower solar radiations relative penetration coefficient (SRRPC) is considered. The comparison was made taking into account the influence of TSBE parameters on electricity consumption in the office premises on the compensation of heat energy losses, as well as its savings due to the receipt of solar radiation during the heating period, the removal of excess heat during the cooling period and energy savings through the use of daylight during a year. It was found that despite the smaller glazing area and light-transmitting characteristics of configuration No. 3 (profile Veka Softline 82 with triple-glazed window 4Solar-16Ar-4-12Ar-4і), electricity savings when changing the configuration of TSBE No. 1 to No. 3 leads to energy savings of 31.7 kWh/yr with the TSBE area of 0.5 m2 to 419.5 kWh/yr at 6 m2, and when replacing configuration No2 by No3 – from 24.7 (STSBE = 0.5 m2) up to 397.2 (STSBE = 6 m2). This makes it possible to determine the energy and economic feasibility of TSBE modernization by installing metal-plastic structures with different lighting and thermal parameters.

Zoning maps of the territory of the Russian Federation on solar radiation and outdoor temperature are given. It should provide for shading of fenestration during the cooling period of buildings, depending on the total amount of solar radiation and the temperature of the outside air. Depending on the amount of solar radiation, five zones are proposed in the territory of the Russian Federation. For each of the five zones, the cooling period of the building is proposed, on which the choice of the parameters of the solar ray daily cone depends on the shape of a solar shading device. A map of isolines of solar radiation for July in the North Caucasus and Southern Federal Districts of the Russian Federation is proposed, which can be used to calculate heat input through fenestration.

Introduction. The article proposes a new energy efficiency assessment method based on a new technique used to calculate the window heat gain. The proposed method takes account of the coefficient of irradiance reduction by the sun shading device. The study was carried out for the shading device of the egg-crate type. Materials and methods. Calculations are based on the projection of a sunbeam performed for a fraction of a window area in the shade. They take account of the coefficient of irradiance reduction applied due to the presence of the sun shading device. A shading device reduces the irradiance, caused by diffused solar radiation, and coefficient Kbt is applied to demonstrate this process. This coefficient was identified in an experiment and expressed in the form of regression equations. To evaluate the energy efficiency with regard for the effectiveness of shading devices, coefficient of solar radiation gain reduction β was developed. This coefficient is described by the ratio of the value of solar radiation incoming through a glazed window in the presence of shading device QK to the value of solar radiation incoming through a glazed window that has no shading QKo. The software programme was used to verify the calculations of the heat gain from the solar radiation incoming through the window system with regard for the shading device in various geographical regions in summer (in Hanoi and Moscow). Results. The results, obtained using the proposed methodology and the observation data, show an insignificant difference in the relative value of β; and they demonstrate a major error when qwindow, or the absolute value of heat entering the room, is taken account of. The heat load, incoming through the window system, is down by 42–45 % in Moscow and by 45–53 % in Hanoi in the hottest period of the year if shading devices are used. Conclusions. The proposed methodology and computer software, used for a quick assessment of the energy efficiency of a window system equipped with shading devices, allow to design building envelopes that feature high energy efficiency in terms of air conditioning systems, given that coefficient of radiation gain reduction β is taken account of.

We present three models for the estimation of hourly global solar radiation for two sites in Algeria, namely: Djelfa (Latitude 34.68°N, Longitude 3.25°E, Altitude 1126 (m)) and Ain Bessem (Latitude 36.31°N, Longitude 3.67°E, Altitude 629 (m)). The models are: the Gaussian distribution model, the model by Collares-Pereira-RabI and the H.A. model (Hourly absolute modelling approach). The experimental assessment was done using recorded values of the hourly global solar radiation on a horizontal plane during the period 2000-2004. The obtained results show a close similarity between the solar radiation values calculated by the three models and the measured values, especially for the first model. The experimental validation shows promising results for the estimation and precise prediction of the hourly global solar radiation.

The present study investigates the effect of fixed external shading devices’ geometry on thermal comfort, daylighting and energy demand for cooling and heating in the hot and dry climate of the city of Ghardaïa (Algeria). A parametric analysis was performed by using three software: RADIANCE 2.0 and DAYSIM 3.1 for daylighting simulation and TRNSYS.17 for thermal dynamic simulation. Three shading device parameters were assessed: the spacing between slats, the tilted angle and the slats installation. The vertical shading angle “VSA” is fixed; it is equal to the optimum shading angle measured for Ghardaïa. The simulation results indicate that fixed external shading devices have a significant impact on decreasing the energy demand for cooling; however, they are unable to reduce the total energy demand since they significantly increase heating loads. It was found that fixed external shading devices remove all risks associated with glare in summer by decreasing illuminance close to the window; however, they do not improve daylighting performance in winter because of glare. We note that even if the vertical shading angle “VSA” was the same for all cases, these did not present the same thermal and luminous behavior. This is mainly due to the amount and the way that the solar radiation penetrates space.

Incident solar radiation modelling has become of vital importance not only in architectural design considerations, but also in the estimation of the energy production of photovoltaic systems. This is particularly true in the case of buildings with integrated photovoltaics (PV) systems having a wide range of orientations and inclinations defined by the skin of the building. Since solar radiation data at the plane of interest is hardly ever available, this study presents the analysis of two of the most representative transposition models used to obtain the in-plane irradiance using as input data the global and diffuse irradiation on the horizontal plane, which can be obtained by satellite-based models or ground measurements. Both transposition models are validated with experimental measurements taken in Murcia (southeast of Spain) and datasets provided by the photovoltaic geographical information system (PVGIS) and the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) for vertical surfaces facing the four cardinal points. For the validation, the mean bias deviation, root mean square error and forecasted skill were used as indicators. Results show that the error rate decreases slightly for clear days. Better results are also obtained by dismissing data with low solar elevation angles so as to avoid shadowing effects from the surroundings in the early and late hours of the day, which affects mainly the performance of the transposition models for west and east surfaces. The results highlight the potential of equator-facing façades in winter time when the received irradiation can be twice as much as the one collected by the horizontal plane. It is also noteworthy that the operating conditions of all façades are mainly low irradiance and medium temperature at these locations.
