1 Review of DSF in Sweden Åke Blomsterberg, Lund University of Technology and WSP Environmental
2 DSF buildings in Sweden Highly glazed office buildings Interest among architects since the nineties Most buildings in the Stockholm area, one to be in Malmö Appr. 10 modern DSF highly glazed office buildings To reduce high indoor temperatures with protected efficient exterior solar shading To reduce transmission heat losses during winter To reduce noise from motor traffic DSF not used for ventilation of the building
3 Why DSF buildings in Sweden Architects: highly glazed office buildings to create an airy, transparent and light building with more access to daylight Engineers: DSF a protected exterior movable efficient solar shading, a reduction of noise from motor traffic, window airing possible Clients: high-profile-quality buildings
4 Potential DSF problems in Sweden Low altitude of the sun, fairly high cooling demands during spring and autumn Risk of high energy use Risk of low daylight levels in the central parts of deep buildings High operating costs and maintenance costs
5 Lacking knowledge on DSF in Sweden Low knowledge level especially on energy and indoor climate aspects for the building behind Poor DSF simulation tools available Low knowledge level on energy and indoor climate performance of DSF buildings Most DSF buildings in operation for only a couple of years
Conclusions on DSF office buildings in Sweden 6 Many modern office buildings with highly glazed facades Some modern office buildings with DSF DSF ventilated to the outside Examples: 3 multi-storey, 1 corridor type, 1 ventilated double window The office building behind with traditional heating, cooling and ventilation No window airing DSF need to be adapted to Swedish conditions High energy use? Thermal comfort problems during winter? High cooling in spring and autumn? Glare problems? Uncertainty in the building sector as to design of DSF
