Integrating the sun light's energy into building's design and processes has been one of the most important aspects of building technology in the past century. One of the concepts that makes it possible to take advantage of the various spectra of the sun's energy band is the use of glass facades. However, the desire to use glass facade to maximize the sun's energy into a building comes at a great cost due to the compromises that exist between permitting daylight and attendant unwanted heat gain.

Produktbeschreibung
Integrating the sun light's energy into building's design and processes has been one of the most important aspects of building technology in the past century. One of the concepts that makes it possible to take advantage of the various spectra of the sun's energy band is the use of glass facades. However, the desire to use glass facade to maximize the sun's energy into a building comes at a great cost due to the compromises that exist between permitting daylight and attendant unwanted heat gain. The product described in this book makes deals with elimination of such compromises using nature's way of cooling the earth. A significant portion of the infrared rays from the sun can be captured by the water and dissipated to prevent direct solar heat gain into (un)conditioned space. The benefits of using such as system include reduced energy consumption due to artificial lighting, air-condition equipment, and an eventual decrease in green house gases.
