Abstract

Curtainwall systems has been applied to buildings widely for constructability. However, as cutainwall system include many building materials, they become to damaged vapor barrier and incur condensation. Natural ventilation of an air cavity in a curtainwall is expected to be an prevention of condensation in inner wall and reduce cooling energy in summer. The objective of this experimental study is to evaluating the insulation and condensation Performance of ventilated curtainwall with ventilated cavity depth and ratio of opening area.
