The paper reports the results of an extended investigation performed on a sample of wooden window selected as case study. An holistic approach was chosen to define all the main parameters characterizing the sample from the thermal, acoustic, mechanical, optical and environmental points of view. After an accurate state of the art survey, experimental measurements or numerical simulations were performed in order to evaluate the following parameters: thermal transmittance, airborne sound insulation, solar, light and UV transmittance, air permeability, water tightness, resistance to wind load. A LCA study allowed to correlate the energy and environmental impacts. By means of a comprehensive results analysis, a standard configuration of the window was defined (Scenario 0); two optimized scenarios were then selected, one including a solar control film in the glazing (Scenario 1) and another with a warm edge spacer replacing a common aluminum spacer (Scenario 2). A complete energy and environmental analysis was performed for all scenarios achieving a holistic evaluation of the benefits. Results show that in temperate climates the improvement of the window thermal characteristics, obtained through a proper control of solar radiation, is the most relevant criterion to optimize the overall energy and environmental performance of the window.

A photovoltaic (PV) system generates heat that is typically wasted and leads to energy inefficiency of the systems. The extraction of this energy using heat exchangers (air) could provide a solution to his problem, hence a form of cogeneration system. However the ability to respond rapidly to the growth of this type of technology with respect to quality and efficiency is still an issue to be addressed. The main goal of this study was to investigate how much heat energy can be extracted for a period of one year from a photovoltaics system using different modified techniques. Heat flow from the modules can be achieved through radiation, conduction, or convection. These processes were explored using heat collector (air), measuring the annual energy production by the system and quantifying the building energy demand in relation to this annual production. It was found that up to 1110.89 kWh heat energy could be harnessed by extracting this energy using airflow behind photovoltaics cells. These findings offer an awareness into the energy savings which are possible with a well-designed building integrated photovoltaic (BIPV) system. The benefits of employing heat exchangers to utilize the thermal energy generated by the photovoltaic modules can be useful in many residential buildings. Furthermore, eliminating the high temperature from the PV cells also decreases thermal stresses as well as improves the electric productivity of the PV system.

Abstract Project CALEBRE (Consumer Appealing Low Energy technologies for Building REtrofitting) is a four year£ 2 million E. ON/RCUK funded project that is investigating technologies and developing solutions for the UK's solid-wall houses to offer energy demand reduction, energy efficient heat generation and energy management combined with user appeal. Understanding how technical solutions can be aligned with householder lifestyles is central to the CALEBRE project.
