Analysis of the rule of window-to-wall ratio on energy demand of residential buildings in different locations in China. [PDF]
Heliyon, 2023 Building energy demands are influenced by the window-to-wall ratio (WWR). The impact of the WWR on the energy demand in the same area has been researched by software. However, the impact of the WWR on the energy demand of buildings in different locations of China has not been investigated using the energy balance equation.

Effects of Window-to-Wall Ratio on Energy Consumption: Application of Numerical and ANN Approaches [PDF]
Journal of Soft Computing in Civil Engineering, 2021 Buildings account for a major part of Total Energy Consumption (TEC) in comparison to that of industry and other sections. The opening and envelope material can affect their TEC. Accordingly, this paper aims to study the effects of the window to external

Evaluating the Effect of Window-to-Wall Ratios on Cooling-Energy Demand on a Typical Summer Day [PDF]
International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health, 2021 The window-to-wall ratio (WWR) significantly affects the indoor thermal environment, causing changes in buildings’ energy demands. This research couples the “Envi-met” model and the “TRNSYS” model to predict the impact of the window-to-wall ratio on indoor cooling energy demands in south Hunan.

Effect of window-to-wall ratio on measured energy consumption in US office buildings
Energy and Buildings, 2019 Abstract Windows can significantly affect building performance, and the window-to-wall ratio (WWR) describes the portion of an exterior wall that consists of windows. Previous research on the effects of WWR and efforts to determine optimal WWR generally rely on iterative simulation or algorithmic optimization.
