Conditions for ensuring energy-saving use of translucent structures of exterior wall envelope

Abstract

The article focuses on determining the translucent structures of exterior wall envelope (TSEWE) properties influence on the total energy balance of the room. The dependence of the energy consumption for artificial lighting on the daylight factor, coefficient of relative penetration of solar radiation (CRPSR) and TSEWE area is determined for Ternopil city. The relationship between the electricity expenses for heating and cooling the room by channel air conditioners on the size and properties of TSEWE is established. Inequalities were obtained that allow us to establish the conditions under which the TSEWE use will have a positive effect on the total energy balance of the office room for the Ternopil city. According to the obtained results, it is possible to determine the thermal resistance, CRPSR and the TSEWE area at which energy savings will occur while observing the climate conditions in the room prescribed by regulations documents.
