Fluidized Glazing & Cladding
Dissipation of Solar and Internally Generated Energy

AVERAGE SOLAR RADIATION  & AMBIENT TEMPERATURE

FACADE TEMPERATURES; AVERAGE SOLAR & WEATHER DATA from MET. Off. 912 & C.I.B.S. Guide.
The situation where the fluid is flowing in the facades but the facades are NOT interconnected, so that there is no "area dilution" ; the area of absorption of energy is the same as the area for loss of energy. Energy is NOT being transferred to or from the storage. The temperature for each facade over the 24 hour day are shown below with ambient Ta'

The situation where the fluid is flowing in the facades ALL of which are interconnected  so that there is maximum "area dilution " ; the area of absorption of energy can be much  less than the area for losses. Energy is NOT being transferred to or from the storage Ms. The temperature of the facades over the 24 hr. day are shown in the chart  above.  NOTE ; the facade would appear cool to a person.  Also, at night and morning it  is  low enough to dissipate the internally generated heat.        See graphs for  150 % average solar radiation
