Publication number: 20150361654Abstract: A structural element with a controllable heat transfer coefficient comprises a frame. A first sheet and a second sheet opposite one another are arranged in the frame. The sheets and the frame have the effect of defining a closed-off volume which is filled with at least one gas. At least one two-dimensional element is arranged between the sheets. An upper intermediate space is formed between the two-dimensional element and the frame vertically upwardly and a lower intermediate space is formed between the two-dimensional element in the frame vertically downwardly. A first cavity is between the first sheet and the two-dimensional element. A second cavity is between the two-dimensional element and the second sheet. The cavities are connected via the upper intermediate space and the lower intermediate space such that a convection flows between the cavities via the intermediate spaces. At least one means arranged in the intermediate spaces controls the convection flow.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 17, 2014Publication date: December 17, 2015Applicants: BASF SE, Fraunhofer-Institut (ISE) für Solare EnergiesystemInventors: Nikolaus NESTLE, Andreas DAIß, Klaus HAHN, Ralf NÖRENBERG, Johann Martin SZEIFERT, Elena KHAZOVA, Achim LÖFFLER, Tilmann KUHN, Christoph MAURER, Thibault PFLUG, Jan WIENOLD, Andre GLÜCK
