Indoor microclimate control can be obtained by means of interaction of
1048713 passive measures (mainly involving architectural morphological and building technology related variables)
1048713 active measures (related to technological plants)
Active and passive measures should be balanced in order to obtain indoor comfort conditions by means of right amount of energy and resources
Building envelope and thermal inertia
bull Each envelope and building structure element has thermal capacity capability of storing thermal energy and delaying heat transfer
bull Heavy structures have longer time response and limited thermal excursions in comparison to ldquolighterrdquo structures
bull This fact helps to limit indoor temperature fluctuations due to seasonal and daily outdoor temperature variation
bull Energy consumption of buildings with high thermal inertia in cold or warm climates can be considerably lower than energy consumption of lighter buildings
bull Thermal energy storage in building mass sometimes allowes to shift the time of max cooling energy demand to time when building is not in use
bull The time lag φ represents the temporal delay of peak heat flow of actual wall compared to instantaneous heat flow of a wall with zero capacity
bull Decrement factor micro represents the ratio between max heat flow of actual wall and max heat flow of zero capacity wall
Φ and μ in function of mass and Uvalue
Effectiveness of thermal inertia increases accordingly to day-night thermal excursion
In warm climates walls store heat during the day and release it during the night that is particularly effective in the case of building used during the day onlyThermal mass can also cooled by way of night ventilation (natural or mechanic)
In cold climates thermal mass helps in storing solar energy during the day and mitigates indoor climate during the evening and the night

Building shape
Building should have the lower possible ratio between losing envelope surface and enclosed volume
Take into account effects of prevailing winds due to building shape and
boundary condition
Building orientation
The best solution is to orient the main building axis on east-west direction South faccedilades receive more solar radiation during winter (when the sun height is lower) than in summer
Amount of solar radiation on different oriented surfaces for different latitudes
Example of good internal layout of a residential building
Solar shading control
Transparent envelope and solar shading control can be obtained by means of bulldimensioning and placing the right amount of glazed surfaces on different orientations
bull choosing the right glass characteristics (even accordingly to facade orientation)bullAdopting solar shading systems (preferably external)
bull Glazed surfaces on North East and West orientations should be dimensioned with the purpose of providing the right amount of daylighting
bull On North orientation rarely reached by beam solar radiation it is important ndash to provide excellent thermal insulation ndash to limit glazed surface dimensions

Could you tell where these buildings are
located
Indoor microclimate control can be obtained by means of interaction of
1048713 passive measures (mainly involving architectural morphological and building technology related variables)
1048713 active measures (related to technological plants)
Active and passive measures should be balanced in order to obtain indoor comfort conditions by means of right amount of energy and resources
Building envelope and thermal inertia
bull Each envelope and building structure element has thermal capacity capability of storing thermal energy and delaying heat transfer
bull Heavy structures have longer time response and limited thermal excursions in comparison to ldquolighterrdquo structures
bull This fact helps to limit indoor temperature fluctuations due to seasonal and daily outdoor temperature variation
bull Energy consumption of buildings with high thermal inertia in cold or warm climates can be considerably lower than energy consumption of lighter buildings
bull Thermal energy storage in building mass sometimes allowes to shift the time of max cooling energy demand to time when building is not in use
bull The time lag φ represents the temporal delay of peak heat flow of actual wall compared to instantaneous heat flow of a wall with zero capacity
bull Decrement factor micro represents the ratio between max heat flow of actual wall and max heat flow of zero capacity wall
Φ and μ in function of mass and Uvalue
Effectiveness of thermal inertia increases accordingly to day-night thermal excursion
In warm climates walls store heat during the day and release it during the night that is particularly effective in the case of building used during the day onlyThermal mass can also cooled by way of night ventilation (natural or mechanic)
In cold climates thermal mass helps in storing solar energy during the day and mitigates indoor climate during the evening and the night

Building shape
Building should have the lower possible ratio between losing envelope surface and enclosed volume
Take into account effects of prevailing winds due to building shape and
boundary condition
Building orientation
The best solution is to orient the main building axis on east-west direction South faccedilades receive more solar radiation during winter (when the sun height is lower) than in summer
Amount of solar radiation on different oriented surfaces for different latitudes
Example of good internal layout of a residential building
Solar shading control
Transparent envelope and solar shading control can be obtained by means of bulldimensioning and placing the right amount of glazed surfaces on different orientations
bull choosing the right glass characteristics (even accordingly to facade orientation)bullAdopting solar shading systems (preferably external)
bull Glazed surfaces on North East and West orientations should be dimensioned with the purpose of providing the right amount of daylighting
bull On North orientation rarely reached by beam solar radiation it is important ndash to provide excellent thermal insulation ndash to limit glazed surface dimensions

Φ and μ in function of mass and Uvalue
Effectiveness of thermal inertia increases accordingly to day-night thermal excursion
In warm climates walls store heat during the day and release it during the night that is particularly effective in the case of building used during the day onlyThermal mass can also cooled by way of night ventilation (natural or mechanic)
In cold climates thermal mass helps in storing solar energy during the day and mitigates indoor climate during the evening and the night

Solar shading control
Transparent envelope and solar shading control can be obtained by means of bulldimensioning and placing the right amount of glazed surfaces on different orientations
bull choosing the right glass characteristics (even accordingly to facade orientation)bullAdopting solar shading systems (preferably external)
bull Glazed surfaces on North East and West orientations should be dimensioned with the purpose of providing the right amount of daylighting
bull On North orientation rarely reached by beam solar radiation it is important ndash to provide excellent thermal insulation ndash to limit glazed surface dimensions
Dimensioning glazed surfaces on South orientation the right amount of daylight is not the matter ndash Windows can be enlarged in order to improve
solar gains in winter ndash Solar shading adoption is anyway a must in
order to limit and control solar gains during summer
ndash Good Uvalue should be adviceable in order to limit thermal losses in winter
Type of glasses
bull The choice of glass typology is an important issue ndash Different kind of glasses available on the
market with variable optical characteristics can fit with needs of different climate conditions (Selective glasses)

Solar shading
bull External solar shading systems should be preferred they shade solar radiation before it comes into the building
On SOUTH orientation shading systems have to be horizontal they are effective in order to limit solar gain during summer and allow solar gain in winter
On EAST and WEST orientations vertical shading device have to be adopted They shade solar radiation during early morning and late afternoon during summer
