An Exploration of the Combined Effects of NIR and VIS Spectrally Selective Thermochromic Materials on Building Performance (2019)
Journal Article
Liang, R., Sun, Y., Aburas, M., Wilson, R., & Wu, Y. (2019). An Exploration of the Combined Effects of NIR and VIS Spectrally Selective Thermochromic Materials on Building Performance. Energy and Buildings, 201, 149-162. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.enbuild.2019.05.061

Thermochromic (TC) windows are able to adjust solar radiation transmitted into buildings in response to varying window surface temperature. Vanadium Dioxide (VO2) is the most common TC material used for TC windows, as it can reduce near infrared (NIR...
