High thermal insulating window frames for energy efficient buildings (THINFRAME)
Start date: Oct 1, 2013, End date: Sep 30, 2015,
The heat loss per area through windows (U-value) is still much greater (around 1.0 W/m2K) than through the building’s walls and roofs. Reduction of window heat loss is essential to reduce the energy use of buildings and their environmental impact as required by the recast Energy Performance of Buildings Directive (EPBD), Directive 2010/31/EU.While substantial effort has been made to improve glazin ...
