Abstract
The term of Passive House refers to a performance-based energy standard for high-efficiency buildings to obtain the expected result by reprocessing the heat created by sunrays' energy and managing it more efficiently. The outcome of such engineering is to find more advanced methods that can offer clean indoor and outdoor environments and reduce the use of natural energy resources that produce carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. The application of passive house energy can deliver a significant cut in the use of unclean sources of energy and assist in reducing the amount of emission released to the atmosphere from fossil fuel and energy resources such as power stations and other suppliers, which are not renewable. Through simulation, this paper proposed and demonstrated a refrigerated window structure for the realization of energy-efficient passive houses. Simulation results show that the proposed refrigerated window is an effective solution to maintaining comfortable indoor environments while consuming less energy, attaining a temperature difference of 13°C between the outside and inside edges of the window frame.
