Effect of venetian blinds size over natural ventilation in double skin façade in winter

The envelope of a building is mainly responsible for its energy demand. Different kinds of double skin facades (DSFs) are nowadays used as a building envelope to reduce the energy demand and improve aesthetical view of buildings. Although DSF are already extensively employed, their thermal performance is not well understood. In this study, the performance of double skin facades including a wide range of venetian blinds sizes are compared with each other in winter at 16 February 2017 in Isfahan city through a precise unsteadyCFD simulation that takes conduction, convection and radiation heat transfer into account.
