Urban solar Curtain Wall Design

4 FAQs about [Urban solar Curtain Wall Design]

Are vacuum integrated photovoltaic curtain walls performance-driven?

The vacuum integrated photovoltaic (VPV) curtain wall has garnered widespread attention from scholars owing to its remarkable thermal insulation performance and power generation ability. However, there is a lack of in-depth, performance-driven optimal design that considers the mutually constraining functions of the VPV curtain wall.

What are exterior glass curtain walls?

Building exterior glass curtain walls serve as the interface between the indoor artificial environment and the outdoor natural environment, fulfilling the essential function of thermal insulation while also playing vital roles in providing daylighting and views .

What is a VPV curtain wall?

The VPV curtain wall consists of a piece of CdTe-based PV laminate glass, an air cavity, and a sheet of vacuum glazing. The solar cells are etched into strips by lasers, and the transmittance of the VPV sample can be adjusted by changing the arrangement density of the strip solar cells.

Are VPV curtain walls mutually constraining?

However, there is a lack of in-depth, performance-driven optimal design that considers the mutually constraining functions of the VPV curtain wall. To address this issue, this study proposed a multi-function partitioned design method for VPV curtain walls aimed at reconciling the competing demand of different functions.
