| This paper reviews current durability literature, various standards for window performance ratings and weathering methods, existing in situ IGU energy performance measurement techniques, and whole-building energy effects.
| It is hypothesized that the usage of smart glass in the building envelope can provide optimum solutions to adapt buildings to the variable climatic and environmental characteristics.
| This paper aims to contribute to this topic by examining the potential of a smart window system that has double dynamic insulated glazing in preventing heat gain and maximising daylight indoors.
| There are parts of the window inside the glass that play a crucial role in its performance.
| The Vacuum Insulated Glazing (VIG) is a unique thermally insulating window technology that can provide significant advantages over the conventional insulating units.
| Daylight control is a main resource of energy saving in buildings. Daylight control systems with mirror optics have the potential to save air conditioning due to the ability to reflect the solar rays back into the sky.
| While glass manufacturers have little control over raw material costs or finished product orders, process control is one area where even minor improvements can trim production costs, improve product quality, and ultimately increase profits.
