| Abstract: | This study determines the glazing area in direct gain passive systems needed to ensure thermal comfort inside a building (room air temperature 20 ± 2°C). A 4 m × 4 m × 3 m single zone isolated house is analyzed in three different types of climates namely composite (8°C to 20°C, New Delhi), cold-cloudy (−2°C to 5°C, Srinagar), and cold-sunny (−14°C to −3°C, Leh). The analysis is based on the periodic solution of the heat conduction equations describing heat transmission in the building components, floor, walls, and roof, and the Fourier representation of the ambient temperature vnd the total solar radiation intercepted by the building envelope. Two types of construction are analyzed: the first type is a traditional construction with 22-cm-thick brick wall, plastered 15 mm on both the sides (U = 2.0 W m−2 K−1); and the second one is of the same type but with 10 cm of expanded polystyrene insulation on all the four walls and the roof (U = 0.31 W m−2 K−1). It is found that for traditional ... |
