“…The absorber is not useful in this case, it is subsequently very suitable to remove this absorbent surface and replace it with a reflective film. However, in addition to the known formulas that characterize the thermal inertia, we also find precious indices that are the inner surface temperatures of walls and allow to concretely assess the thermal inertia level of such a construction [11,12]. That is why we give a capital importance on this parameter that we consider very decisive in determination of the thermal insulation effectiveness by the solar wall technique.…”

“…With using the simplified conservation equation of the dry air mass, we get equation (6) [5][6][7]: As for the sensitive balance, a system of n equations with n unknowns is obtained; the main variables are the specific humidities in each zone. We can use the empirical formulas of Nadeau and Puiggali [11,12]; specific humidity may be expressed as a function of relative humidity by the relationship:…”

Abstract. The aim of this paper is devoted to an example of a concrete application in the bioclimatic architecture: integration of a simple solar air collector in building facades under Saharan climate. The originality of this work is to lift a serious problem that is often encountered in the summer when the indoor air cooling mode through natural ventilation becomes ineffective. We showed that the specific architectural integration of solar air collectors can bring a positive support to the thermo-aeraulic comfort by controlling the mass flow rate of the air entering to the heated building zone in cold season. The major inconvenience of this technique is often encountered in summer. To ensure the reliability of this technique that is sometimes regrettable, it is first necessary to control automatically the opening and closing the air ventilation valve.

“…A transient thermal model, based on the heat balances of different components has been developed. Also, the proposed model is based on the thermal nodal method [11][12][13][14][15][16] which is very widespread because it requires a reduced memory capacity; allows having results in a relatively short time. In the second objective, the calculation method has as object a specific regulatory calculation of the conventional energy consumption of an existing building for heating, ventilation and cooling.…”

The aim of this paper is devoted to the coupling of ventilation systems with buildings with low energy performances under a specific Saharan climate. In the second part, the objective is to diagnose and quantify energy consumptions due to the ventilation of a real residential building in Ghardaia site. As result, ventilation system can bring a positive support to the thermo-aeraulic comfort by controlling the mass flow rate of the air entering to the heated or/and cooled building zone. Heat losses due to the ventilation system represent 4.75% of the total losses; the provided heat exchange in this case requires an additional consumption of around 6.6058% of the total energy needs.
