Description

The present study investigates the heat transfer from the indoor glazing surface of a window with an adjacent irradiated venetian blind, using a steady-state, laminar, two-dimensional, conjugate conduction / convection / radiation finite element model of a vertical isothermal plate with heated, horizontal, and rotatable louvers. The sensitivity of radiative and convective heat transfer from the plate has been examined with respect to six variables: blind to glass spacing, blind slat angle, irradiation level, glass temperature, and blind and glass emissivity. The effect of the variables on the heat transfer rate from the plate surface has been demonstrated.
