Effects of doubled glazed facade on energy consumption, thermal comfort and condensation for a typical office building in Singapore

Author(s): Hien, W. N., Liping, W. , Chandra, A. N. , Pandey, A. R., Xiaolin, W.
Buildings in Singapore use fully glazed-façade systems because of their daylight advantages of low consumption of lighting energy and the aesthetic satisfaction of full external views. High energy consumption, thermal discomfort, and issues with noise control are some of the disadvantages associated with single-glazed façade systems. Double-glazed façade ventilation systems are believed to address these issues.
