The Influence of an Integrated Driving on the Performance of Different Passive Heating and Cooling Methods for Buildings
Abstract
:1. Introduction
1.1. Classification by Time between Driving
1.2. Features of Operation
- Mobility. Related to the self-adjustment of the passive method for maximizing its performance according to the external and internal conditions; it is also defined as the control of the method, e.g., the opening of two opposite doors for cross ventilation.
- Maintenance. Understood as all physical action applied to the passive-method mechanism in the long-term for increasing its performance. For instance, to clear the window glass for passive solar heating.
- Assembly. Stated with regard to its placement and displacement according to the status of the passive method. For example, the placement of an external window shutter to keep the indoor heat.
- Consumables. Defined as the resources used to perform the passive methods. One example of this is the water used to decrease the indoor temperature by applying eco-evaporative cooling.
