Double skin facade
Posted: Tue Jul 12, 2011 3:53 pm
Hello everyone! My name is Mark.
Although I cannot be considered as a VE rookie user, I am facing the problem that I am not sure whether I can solve. Actually, I might be considered as a rookie user when it comes to MacroFlo module and I have realised that in order to simulate the behaviour and impact of double skin facade I should do it in MacroFlo. Am I right? Is there any solution that would not include entering this module. I had thoughts about changing thermal properties of existing constructions, as well as adding obstruction (that might represent glazed wall), but I believe it is very tricky to perform it correctly, especially when it comes to u-values, since the air temperature in the gap varies. Any help, pls?
