This study uses the ZEH proposed by Kanto-Gakuin University in the "ENEMANE HOUSE 2015" project by ANRE, METI of Japan. This report provides thermal and light environment measurements, and clarifies how a south-facing buffer space using partitioning and outer skin members influences heat load. The heat load is calculated from the weather data of the 2010s, and the ZEH's applicability was examined in seven Japanese local regions. High heat partitioning maintains the heat load unaffected even with glass used for the outer skin members. The ZEH is effective in heating load, in Niigata and Fukuoka, energy-saving reference 5 and 7.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
