“…A solar house based on this concept has also been constructed in Jordan (1983)(1984) with two sections, namely the heated section and the non-heated space. Ta'ani et al [62] reported that it is possible to meet 54% of the building's heating demands by solar energy with collector array efficiency with proper retrofitting. Tyagi and Buddhi [63] proposed a filling of phase change materials (PCM) to enhance the storage of latent heat in the masonry wall.…”

In this review, an attempt has been made to analyze passive solar heating and cooling concepts along with their effects on performance of a building's thermal management. The concepts of Trombe wall, solarium, evaporative cooling, ventilation, radiative cooling, wind tower, earth air heat exchanger, roof pond, solar shading for buildings, and building-integrated photovoltaic thermal (BiPVT) systems are extensively covered in this review. Comparison of results by various heating and cooling concepts has been made. It has been observed that direct heating through double-glazed window saves maximum conventional fuel for thermal heating during winter months. Further, an evaporative cooling is one of the best cooling concepts which is economical too in summer period. 2
