Original Abstract
The energy saving double solar facade of the Moravian Regional Library building in Brno has been experimentally and numerically investigated to predict the heat gains utilized for heating by the air ventilation system in the library. The double-skinned facade consists of an outer single glazing system with adjustable louvers, a shading system and the inner wall consists of double glazed windows and the sill wall from porous concrete. In order to evaluate the characteristics of the solar facade, thermal and solar measurements were carried out using a fragment taken as a sample of the solar facade. The influence of inner air space (ventilated cavity) and the construction of the solar facade on both recovery of the solar energy during sunshine periods and on heat losses during night hours have been assessed for the heating period. Results from the experimental and numerical investigations will be used in the regulation system and for the operation of the solar facade. At the present time, the library building is still under construction. Complete monitoring including further experimental measurements on the solar facade will be carried out later this year and in the following year as well.
