Abstract
Demands for the building energy conservation, thermal and visual comfort make the ventilated double-skin facade (DSF) more attractive and more popular in commercial buildings. This paper reviews the recent research development of ventilated double-skin facade in China. The velocity and temperature distribution in the double-skin facade (DSF) are reviewed, together with the effects of glass types, channel width, intensity of solar radiation and shading methods on the heat transfer of ventilated double-skin facade (DSF). This paper also describes the effect of the different combinations of glass, blinds settings, ventilation rate and the channel width, intensity of solar radiation and shading. Furthermore, the methods to improve the energy saving of ventilated double-skin facade (DSF) are also reviewed.
