Abstract:This paper reports the numerical study on the influence of solar radiation on the energy consumption of large buildings on a university campus. The actual campus is located in the south of Portugal, in a Mediterranean type environment, and consists of 6 educational buildings. These six buildings have a total area of 27,599 m2 and 595 compartments, where 6,529 opaque surfaces (doors, walls, etc.) and 983 transparent ones (windows) were identified.
