Abstract

ABSTRACT Different solutions have been investigated to reduce energy consumption in buildings in recent years. The use of smart windows to change the solar irradiation entering the building and to reject the solar heat has been one of these approaches. An IoT-based smart electrochromic window was created for this study, and both its technical stability and functionality were assessed in a laboratory environment. For six cities in different climate classes in Iran in 2019, simulations revealed that the indoor horizontal illuminance had a higher priority than the temperature in controlling the transparency of the windows during the first six months of the year. And it resulted in an average reduction of about 45% in the energy used for lighting and cooling in a medium-sized building. Additionally, the proposed window's energy efficiency varied according to climate, with arid climates having the highest efficiency and continental climates having the lowest. HIGHLIGHTS IoT-based Smart Electrochromic Window. Control algorithms for smart electrochromic windows. Simulation of the energy consumption in buildings.

开发基于物联网的智能建筑电致变色窗

摘要近年来，人们对降低建筑能耗的不同解决方案进行了研究。使用智能窗户来改变进入建筑物的太阳辐射并拒绝太阳热量一直是这些方法之一。为这项研究创建了一个基于物联网的智能电致变色窗口，并在实验室环境中评估了其技术稳定性和功能。2019年，对于伊朗不同气候等级的六个城市，模拟显示，在今年前六个月控制窗户透明度时，室内水平照度比温度更重要。它使中型建筑的照明和制冷能源平均减少了约45%。此外，拟建窗口的能效因气候而异，干旱气候的能效最高，大陆气候的能效最低。亮点基于物联网的智能电致变色窗口。智能电致变色车窗的控制算法。建筑物能耗模拟。
