The Major Qualifying Project “Controlling Heat Transfer Through Existing Windows” focused on the research and analysis of how heat transfer occurs through windows, and how and why modern technologies seek to lessen this heat transfer. From the literature review, new methods to limit heat transfer through existing windows were created. Additionally, a manufacturing process and testing procedure was outlined for a window pane gas replacement.
