Ahorros en los consumos para enfriamiento de espacios interiores mediante la evaluación de sistemas de protección solar en edificios residenciales en altura. El caso de la "ciudad-oasis" de Mendoza, Argentina
Abstract:This article analyzes the thermal and energy performance of high-rise residential buildings in the specific context of an oasis city. The aim of the study is to define adequate solar control systems in the envelope for each building material typology -heavyweight and lightweight-for two different housing height levels: above and below the tree canopy. By monitoring occupied dwellings, dynamic models were validated with Energy Plus software and proposed alternatives for solar protection were simulated. Energy s… Show more
