RESEARCH ON THE OPTIMIZATION OF INSTALLATION JOINTS FOR SUPER-LOW ENERGY WINDOWS IN COLD REGIONS
This paper takes Harbin,a city in northern China known for its harsh winters,as a case study.Based on the actual conditions of a super-low energy consumption building demonstration project,it explores the internal pro-file modifications of commonly used plastic and aluminum-wood composite windows.By considering different instal-lation methods and utilizing WINDOW and THERM software for simulation calculations,the study compares the temperature and linear thermal transmittance coefficients at the installation joints of the window frame systems.Through quantitative analysis in both horizontal and vertical directions,the research aims to identify optimization strategies for installing super-low energy windows in cold regions.The findings propose design improvements,which are significant for promoting the application of energy-efficient windows in extremely cold climates.
