Abstract
In the study, firstly, heat transfer coefficients of windows were calculated according to the highest and lowest emissivity values. Secondly, monthly average solar radiation values were determined. The heat transfer coefficient calculated for double, triple and quadruple glass windows. Thirdly, the solar radiation in the south, north and east/west directions of the five climatic zones were multiplied by the shading factor, surface area and the solar energy factor of discrete buildings. Thus, the solar energy gain value for the heating period and solar energy losses for cooling period was determined. Finally, passive solar energy gains are calculated during the heating and cooling period for all climate zones. It has been calculated that in the fifth climatic zone in south direction, heat loss from windows with 0.05 emissivity can be provided with passive solar energy by 167.9% in double-glazed windows, 258.7% in triple-glazed windows and 349.1% in quadruple-glazed windows.
