Window knowledge system

There is a large energy saving potential in Denmark designing and using windows with optimum energy quali-ties. The object of the project was to develop a “window knowledge system” based on the work done in al-ready finished projects carried out at BYG·DTU during the last 10 years. The main background material (14 compendiums) for the knowledge system was created in the project with the title “Projekt Vindue”. This work/material has been reviewed and updated. The focus of this window knowledge system is an objective information source on the energy performance of all types of windows. The window knowledge system should also details describes how to calculate the energy labelling data (U-value, Y-value and Net Energy Gain) of a window according to the standards. The window system also includes Fundamental energy knowledge of windows Large collection of relevant papers and report Resume of the demands of the building code regarding windows Free download of the program WinDesign Overview of relevant window software Relevant link collections The window knowledge system has the address: http:// www.vinduer.byg.dtu.dk
