MIT Solar Building 5 [electronic resource] : the second year's performance.

The MIT Solar Building 5 has shown the problems associated with direct gain approaches can be overcome with new architectural finish materials that emphasize their thermophysical properties. Three new materials are demonstrated in the building: (1) a transparent window insulation; (2) a glare modula...

520 3 |a The MIT Solar Building 5 has shown the problems associated with direct gain approaches can be overcome with new architectural finish materials that emphasize their thermophysical properties. Three new materials are demonstrated in the building: (1) a transparent window insulation; (2) a glare modulating and light directing louver; and (3) a ceiling tile that stores heat latently. 1978-1979 thermal performance measurements showed the sun supplied 62% of the building's seasonal heating requirement while an additional 13% of the load was supplied by internal gains from the lights. This was done by glazing only 45% of the south wall. Economic analyses show the payback period is 4 to 5 times faster than when using the flat plate collector approach. Architectural flexibility has been increased, even to the point where new kinds of spaces can be created using these materials.
