Análisis de la influencia, en la demanda de climatización, de estrategias pasivas en viviendas con grandes superficies acristaladas, mediante un código de simulación. La casa Farnsworth = Analysis of the influence, in climate control demand, of passive st

The highest energy consumption in the residential sector is due to the air conditioning installations. There are numerous stud-ies of flats oriented to optimize this item, but few focus on the detached house. A critical point in this building typology are the window aperture, which suppose a great surface on the total of the envelope. Therefore, the objective of this work is to analyze, quantify and assess the influence of different passive strategies, which consists of the installation of different types of glazing and solar protections, taking into account the orientation of the house, to reduce the energy demand of air conditioning. The analysis of results provides guidelines for the behavior of different strategies and their direct impact on the design demand of refrigeration and heating equipment. They are not unique solutions, but they are indicative when proposing decisions adapt-able to similar building typologies.
