What are the negative effects of window condensation?
|
Reduced visibility
Psychologically irritating Can lead to sever damage of surrounding construction from wetting. |
|
|
Depending on the relative thermal characteristics, where are the main three areas condensation may be observed on a window.
|
Glass, frame or sash
|

|
Relative Humidity in a room which condensation will occur on the inside surface of the glass depends on the glass surface temperature. What are the principle factors effecting the glass surface temperature? |
The inside and outside air temperatures adjacent to the glass surface The number of panes of glass The air flow condition over inner and outer surfaces (Additional factors: width of air space, convection within the air space, and air leakage into and out of the air space. Thickness is usually unimportant due to glass's high thermal conductivity) |
