With the rising demand for entirely glass facades and glass roofs, the need to carry out an
additional analysis of conditions to secure comfortable microclimate has
appeared. There is a peculiar issue to work out design principles of glass
buildings in the northern regions. The article deals with the general data of
inside temperature in rooms and on internal glass surface of commercial
pavilions made of glass. The data to work out the design of glazing for
considerable areas of glass facades and glass roofs in the northern regions
have been given herein. The factors, which make it uncomfortable for people to
stay inside glass space, have been researched.
Heat losses in commercial pavilions with various dimension ratios and the
amount of energy consumed for heating have been determined in the case of the
weather conditions in the northern city of Saint-Petersburg (Russia).
