The purpose of this study is to evaluate the natural ventilation performance for variable external wind speed as a preliminary step to determining the seasonal operating modes of the Double-skin Facade System applied to apartment buildings. For this purpose, two simulation programs are used to compare the Double-Skin Facade System with the Double Sash Window. First, TAS is used to plan a schedule for natural ventilation during the intermediate season and to analyze the cooling loads. Second, CFD is used for a more detailed airflow analysis on a typical floor plan of the model building. The results of the simulations on natural ventilation performance show that the Double-Skin Facade System can reduce the cooling load by 10.5% compared to the Double Sash Window.

To date the engineering community has seen facade systems as non-structural elements with high aesthetic value and a barrier between the outdoor and indoor environments. The role of facades in energy use in a building has also been recognized and the industry is also witnessing the emergence of many energy efficient facade systems. This paper will focus on using exterior skin of the double skin facade system as a dissipative movable element during earthquake excitation. The main aim of this study is to investigate the potential of the facade system to act as a damper system to reduce earthquake-induced vibration of the primary structure. Unlike traditional mass dampers, which are usually placed at the top level of structures, the movable/smart double skin facade systems are distributed throughout the entire height of building structures. The outer skin is moveable and can act as a multi tuned mass dampers (MTMDs) that move and dissipate energy during strong earthquake motions. In this paper, using a three dimensional 10-storey building structure as the example, it is shown that with optimal choice of materials for stiffness and damping of brackets connecting the two skins, a substantial portion of earthquake induced vibration energy can be dissipated which leads to avoiding expensive ductile seismic designs. It is shown that the engineering demand parameters (EDPs) for a low-rise building structures subjected to moderate to severe earthquakes can be substantially reduced by introduction of a smart designed double skin system.

본 연구는 Double Skin System의 화재 전파 위험성을 전산유체역학모델인 FDS를 이용하여 평가하였다. 화재모델링을 구현하기 위해 오피스 용도의 단위 구획공간을 화재지역으로 선정하였으며, 화재시나리오는 외창으로의 연소확대 위험 분석을 위하여 일반적으로 많이 설치되는 시스템조건들을 Case로 선정하여 분석하였다. 본 연구의 목적은 일반적으로 많이 사용되는 Double Skin System의 설치 간격에 따른 건물상층부로의 화재확대 위험성을 평가하고, 이에 따른 방화대책 등을 수립하는데 있다. 해석 결과, 더블스킨 중간층 간격이 넓을수록 상부층으로 연소확대 영향이 작은 것을 확인할 수 있었으며, 중간층 간격이 1m 미만인 경우는 발화층 상부 2개층으로 연소확대가 예상되므로 층간연소 확대 방지 시스템이 요구됨을 알 수 있다.

Purpose : Improvement of indoor thermal comfort and reduction of the energy consumption in building can be obtained by applying a double skin facade system. In order to achieve effectively this purpose, design team would have to perform easy and appropriate performance analysis for making better design decision during the design process. Method : This paper focus on the natural ventilation performance of a multi-story type double skin facade with main causes which are pressure difference according to the wind and temperature difference between indoor and outdoor (Buoyancy Effect). Using this main causes, the natural ventilation ratio of wind effect-to-buoyancy effect in cavity of multi-story type double skin facade were analyzed through the performance analysis results of CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) simulation. Result : When the wind velocity was 2m/s, the ventilation rate in the cavity was highest. If wind velocity was slower than 2m/s wind velocity, buoyancy effect has more influence on the ventilation rate in the cavity, and if wind velocity was faster than 2m/s wind velocity, wind effect has more influence on the ventilation rate in the cavity.

The annual mean temperature of South Korea has risen by $1.3^{\circ}C$ for last 100 years by urbanization and industrialization. Especially, the frequency of unusual hot weather in summer increases for a long time and the frequency of unusual cold weather in winter clearly decreases. In recently, The considerable portion of curtain wall system is appled to building skin in domestic. As related to this, the Korea Institute of Construction Technology devised the box typed double skin facade(It is occasionally called as FDFS : Functional Double Facade System) as an alternative that reflects the distinctive local climate and saves cooling energy. Two mock-ups($49m^*4.9m$) applied to single skin(curtain wall) and double skin each were monitored under the outdoor condition. Therefore, the characteristics of natural ventilation and cooling energy consumption of each window had been analyzed in real time. The results of this study are summarized as follow, Analysis of the experiment on an air conditioner: the indoor temperature of the chamber with FDFS is lower than that of the chamber with single skin facades by $3{\sim}6$ degrees(C). A temperature variation of about $1{\sim}2$ degrees between the 0.2m and 1.7m height of the mock-up occurs in FDFS, while that of about maximum 7 degrees occurs in single skin facade at noon with abundant intensity of solar accident. Also, 67 percent of energy consumption for air conditioning has been saved.

Purpose: This study desires to investigate an effect of indoor temperature, humidity, and illuminance targeting a planting system of double-skin facade and cavity space adjacent to the outside within a certain period of winter. Through this, the study suggests a basic material about an energy conservation effect of double window system using planting to reduce heating load of a building in winter, so desires to contribute to indoor thermal comfort effect and illuminance correction study of double window and indoor plant. Method: Considering effects such as day and night climatic elements and air conditions in winter, illuminance measurement was conducted through a double-skin facade of space, a subject of the measurement, on the basis of practical residence time of a resident, and this study analyzed characteristics of indoor illuminance about this. The study measured and compared a change of insolation, dry-bulb temperature, and relative humidity at each indoor-outdoor measuring point, so measured and compared characteristics of an indoor temperature effect by elements of double-skin facade and indoor plant. Result: Through this study, the researcher could determine that indoor plant within double window in winter not only blocks solar radiation but also photosynthesizes, so is somewhat disadvantageous to winter thermal comfort reducing heating load. In addition, solar radiation going through interior plays a role to bring down somewhat high humidity to about 50% of reasonable humidity, so plays a direct role of maintenance of comfortable indoor space. Although there are effects such as blocking of solar radiation and temperature reduction, this has a positive influence on humidity control and proper illuminance distribution. The researcher could determine that illuminance, temperature, and humidity by solar radiation penetration for the whole measuring time play a role to supplement indoor environment mutually.
