| Global warming is a serious problem we face today. Overusing fossil fuels not only emits wasteful gas and pollutes our atmosphere but also produces greenhouse gases that lead to global warming. In response to the energy crisis and global warming, solar energy is a source of energy that can be used without depleting. Solar energy is quiet and produces no toxic emission or greenhouse gas. It is an ideal energy we can use instead of fossil fuel and stop global warming. One of the methods to use renewable solar energy is Building Integrated Photovoltaic (BIPV). The basic frame of energy saving integrated facade can integrate with manipulation of solar energy, heat insulation efficiency, ambient lighting, transmit lighting and ventilation efficiency on the photovoltaic (PV) sun shading and fan. The power that is needed for the fan control results from the collection of the PV sun shading. PV shading is also a sustainable insolation prevention system for tropical zones. This thesis demonstrates that an air curtain is an effective thermal strategy that supports the new age of low-energy, zero-energy sustainable energy saving architecture.;This research included collecting and arranging data to support the basic theory and to frame the design standard of the solar integrated facade BIPV, analysis of successful. American and overseas case studies of BIPV for the standard and reference for the design of the energy saving integrated facade. Ecotect and computational fluid dynamics (CFD) are used to examine the designing productions for make up the reliable reason and the reference emendation to support the designing productions. Estimates and discussion of energy saving integrated facade: This study arranges and analysis the experiments results to estimate the entirety designing productions to provide a reference for architecture designer. The goal is to develop a good example of BIPV, low-energy facade in architecture design and to suggest the trends for continuing research.;PV sun shadings help airflow substantially more efficiently than normal window shading. After placing the fan in the air gap the airflow is even better. The energy saving integrated facade greatly improved the insulation of the best test experimental configuration. An energy saving integrated facade can block heat from the sun so the indoor layer can have a bigger opening, improving the ambient indoor lighting and ultimately creating more comfortable work spaces. |
