⺠An optimization-based feasibility study of ATI is conducted in this paper. ⺠ATI is designed to actively compensate for heat transfer occurring through a two-pane window. ⺠A thin-film photovoltaic (PV) module integrated into the outer pane. ⺠The PV module powers thermoelectric (TE) units embedded in the window frame.
