Análise de viabilidade do uso do condicionamento térmico passivo em edificações unifamiliares de interesse social como estratégia de eficiência energética

Abstract

This research aims to study the feasibility analysis of application of passive thermal conditioning through bioclimatology as strategy of energy efficiency in a low-cost single-family residence. The methodology adopted was field research that used visits and interviews with users to expose the building characteristics and to allow highlight possible points of improvement. The current costs in artificial conditioning for heating and cooling were surveyed, and project improvements were proposed through bioclimatic strategies , inertia, shading and solar orientation strategies such as natural ventilation, inertia, shading and solar orientation. Then, it was estimated the economy obtained with the probable reduction of use of the artificial climatization and verified the payback time of the investment, if these interventions were observed during the project design, emphasizing the importance of responsible professional attention to these details during the design phase.
