Abstract
With the growing awareness of the impact of climate change and the need to conserve energy, smart window technologies have emerged as a promising solution. Liquid crystal/polymer composites-based switchable windows, such as PDLC, PSLC, and PSCT, offer the ability to regulate both privacy and radiant energy flow. In this study, we investigated the potential of these windows and identified methods to enhance their capabilities. Our results indicate that PDLC and PSCT windows with the appropriate film thickness have the potential to control radiant energy flow, while also providing improved privacy and comfort for building occupants.
