The photovoltaic curtain wall (roof) system, as the outer protective structure of the building, must first have various functions such as weatherproof, heat preservation, heat insulation, sound insulation, lightning protection, fire prevention, lighting, ventilation, etc., in order to provide people with a safe and comfortable indoor environment. .
The PV curtain wall is the most typical one in the integrated application of PV building. It combines PV power generation technology with curtain wall technology, which uses special resin materials to insert solar cells between glass materials and convert solar energy into electricity through the panels for use by enterprises.
The physical properties of the photovoltaic curtain wall (roof) system mainly include wind pressure resistance, water tightness, air tightness, thermal performance, air sound insulation performance, in-plane deformation performance, seismic requirements, impact resistance performance, lighting performance, etc.
Gas with harmful effect and no noise is a kind of net energy and has good compatibility with the environment. However, due to the high price, photovoltaic curtain walls are now mostly used for the roofs and exterior walls of landmark buildings, which fully reflects the architectural features.
