Abstract
A wall or window element and/or wall element beneath the window is provided having an insulation layer disposed between two panels. The insulation layer is formed of a material which reduces convective heat transfer and thermal radiation. The insulation layer and the panels are permeable by the solar radiation spectrum, and the external panel which bounds the insulation layer on the side of the solar radiation is an absorptive pane which has a maximally high absorptivity for the non-visible portion of the solar radiation spectrum.
Claims15
A wall or window element comprising:
- (a) a thermal insulation layer consisting of a three dimensional thin wall structure having a low capacity for transmission of convective heat and thermal radiation and being highly transmissive to the solar radiation spectrum;
- (b) a first pane colored to its core bounding said insulation layer on a first side thereof and said first pane being an absorptive pane consisting of a material that is highly absorptive of the non-visible portions, infrared and ultraviolet range, of the solar radiation spectrum while being substantially transmissive to the visible portion of the solar radiation spectrum having substantially no reflection properties with respect to solar radiation beyond those which are inherent in untreated material;
- (c) said absorptive pane having on its internal side facing said insulating layer, a layer which impedes emission of heat radiation;
- (d) a space being provided between said internal side of said absorptive pane facing the insulation layer and the insulation layer;
- (e) a second pane bounding said insulation layer on a second side thereof opposite said first side and formed of a material which is transmissive to the entire solar radiation spectrum;
- and
- (f) means for pivotally mounting said entire element in a frame so as to be rotatable through 180.degree..
