A transparent insulation material (TIM) can be incorporated in a building element in order to improve its thermal performance, including solar heat gain. However, some overheating protection needs to be implemented. The provision of natural ventilation in a façade cavity to avoid overheating, along with other potential techniques, could require a completely different approach to TIM integration in solar façade concepts. This paper concerns an analysis of the effect of different absorber emissivity behind a transparent insulation system. The emissivity changes are primarily studied in order to determine their effects on the overall radiation - natural convection heat transfer through a narrow façade air cavity. A comparative investigation was conducted using experimental full-scale dynamic outdoor tests and the building energy simulation (BES) approach. The thermodynamic response affected by the radiation - natural convection transfer is identified, specifically during the summer peak period, that corresponds to overheating. Depending on the ventilation regime, a low emissivity solar absorber inside a narrow air façade cavity may increase the cooling energy load and temperature response of a façade by 25 and 36%, respectively, in comparison with a high emissivity absorber. When the emissivity of the zone inside the cavity was changed, significant limitations were identified in the BES calculation methods for both vented and unvented cases.
