Contact UsHeat insulation solar glass (HISG) is a type of multifunction PV module. HISG has a considerably low shading coefficient and U value. HISG can reduce air conditioning and heating energy consumption in buildings. HISG can replace any type of glass installed in a building. HISG is a safe construction material.
Aside from differences regarding the glass installed in the two houses, both houses exhibited identical condition. This study observed the effects that two types of glass had on thermal environments within buildings under climate conditions found in Taipei.
In combination with other glass types even “re-protection, low-e insulation, sun protection or bullet-proof” can be reached. The optical attraction of solar cells even more give a solar facade a value in itself, revaluing the building as well .
When sunlight transmits through the first layer of HISG (i.e., the transparent PV module), the rest of the light is reflected to the back of the transparent PV module by the high reflectivity heat insulation film (i.e., the second layer). The amount of power generated increases when the transparent PV module absorbs the reflected light.
The photocatalyst layer coating on the HISG surface changed the surface properties of the glass, creating the water contact angle of only 6°, which was super hydrophilic. During rain, this coating produced a water film and stains were easily removed, thus achieving self-cleaning.
However, the multi-layer structure of HISG blocked radiation and conductive heat; consequently, the temperature in the HISG House was 44 °C, which was approximately 11° lower than the 55 °C temperature in the Ordinary House. In summary, simulation software again demonstrated excellent heat insulation effects for HISG.
