OTTV CALCULATIONS
QUESTION:
Study the drawing and figures below; assume all four elevations of the building are identical:

6mm monolithic clear

Single glazed window
with horiziontal
shading

Plastered brick wall

painted grey

Given the following:

WALL
plastered brick wall Uw=2.87W/m2k
painted grey in colour α= 0.65
WINDOW
single glazed Uf=6W/m2k
SHADING COEFFICIENT
6mm monolithic clear glazing SC1, refer Appendix 1
horizontal shading device SC2, R= x/y
x= 1m y=2m

I. Calculate the OTTV of the building, tabulate the data in the table provided.
II. Determine if this building follows the OTTV requirements of
MS 1525 (OTTV < 50 W/m2).
