The impact of PDLC polymer film on window insulation

In the present work, we are interested in the thermal study of a PDLC-type composite film pane. To do this, we first set out to determine its characteristics, based on the variation in temperature in both the inner and outer faces of a cube, in the presence of a heat source. The results obtained show a significant improvement, as well as a minimization of heat losses, with the addition of an opaque PDLC plate next to the glass panes, instead of doubling the thickness of the glass panes used, so we deduce the crucial interest of these innovative materials.
