First measurement results of a pilot building with transparent façade collectors
Abstract
A field of transparent solar thermal façade collectors (TSTC) was installed in a pilot building in Ljubljana, Slovenia. This paper presents the first measurement results from the installation. During the heating season, the transparent façade collectors contribute to the heating of the pilot building, while they provide heat to an adsorption chiller during the cooling season. Despite the different loads and surrounding conditions, the monthly solar gains of both seasons are similar. The heat flux between the collector and the interior as well as the temperatures seem comparable to a conventional solar control façade.
