ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN OF PASSIVE SOLAR RESIDENTIAL BUILDING
ABSTRACT
This paper studies thermal environment of closed balconies that commonly exist in residential buildings, and designs a passive solar residential building. The design optimizes the architectural details of the house and passive utilization of solar energy to provide auxiliary heating for house in winter and cooling in summer. This design might provide a more sufficient and reasonable modification for microclimate in the house.
