Analysis of the Life Cycle Energy Impacts of Vacuum Insulated Glass in Manufacturing and Sustainable Buildings

open access: yesChallenging Glass Conference Proceedings
Building energy efficiency targets have sharpened focus on the embodied costs of high-performance products. Vacuum Insulated Glass (VIG) offers a centre-of-glass U-value in the range 0.4–1.2 W/m²K — well below that of conventional Insulated Glazing Units

The Effect Of Glass Thickness On Stress In Vacuum Glazing

open access: yes, 2018
Heat transfer through multiple pane windows can be reduced by creating a vacuum pressure less than 0.1 Pa between the glass panes, with low emittance coatings on one or more of the internal surfaces. Fabrication of vacuum glazing (VG) requires the formation of a hermetic seal around the periphery of the glass panes together with an array of support ...

The thermal performance of an electrochromic vacuum glazing with selected low-emittance coatings

open access: yes, 2008
An electrochromic (EC) vacuum glazing (VG) is formed when a vacuum glazing is combined with an electrochromic glazing. Three glass panes are required, two of which may have a low-emittance coating separated by a pillar array, the space formed being ...

Optimum Design and Energy Performance of Hybrid Triple Glazing System with Vacuum and Carbon Dioxide Filled Gap

open access: yes, 2019
This study develops a hybrid triple glazing technology that combines vacuum and carbon dioxide (CO2) gaps to help store CO2 in buildings. We determine the optimal thickness of glazing and calculate its thermal transmission (U-value). The amount of energy
