About this document
Vacuum vs. Insulating Glass Units by Krzysztof Harasimowicz is a document available to read on EtoBox.
This document compares vacuum insulating glass units (VIGs) to multiple insulating glass units. It discusses how VIGs offer extremely slim designs and low heat transfer coefficients (Ug) of around 0.3-0.5 W/m2K. Recent developments have achieved large sizes and lower Ug values through rigid edge seals. Flexible edge seals could further improve VIGs by allowing for larger standalone units. Multiple insulating glass units also offer improvements over standard triple glazing but have higher thicknesses. Novel
