| Summary: | The article focuses on determining the energy efficiency of the translucent structures of building envelope (TSBE) use with different lighting and thermal parameters. The expediency of replacing TSBE with more modern ones with higher thermal resistance and lower solar radiations relative penetration coefficient (SRRPC) is considered. The comparison was made taking into account the influence of TSBE parameters on electricity consumption in the office premises on the compensation of heat energy losses, as well as its savings due to the receipt of solar radiation during the heating period, the removal of excess heat during the cooling period and energy savings through the use of daylight during a year. It was found that despite the smaller glazing area and light-transmitting characteristics of configuration No. 3 (profile Veka Softline 82 with triple-glazed window 4Solar-16Ar-4-12Ar-4і), electricity savings when changing the configuration of TSBE No. 1 to No. 3 leads to energy savings of 31.7 kWh/yr with the TSBE area of 0.5 m2 to 419.5 kWh/yr at 6 m2, and when replacing configuration No2 by No3 – from 24.7 (STSBE = 0.5 m2) up to 397.2 (STSBE = 6 m2). This makes it possible to determine the energy and economic feasibility of TSBE modernization by installing metal-plastic structures with different lighting and thermal parameters. |
