Summer Thermal Performance of a Multistoried Residential Building
Journal Title: International Journal of Engineering and Science Invention - Year 2017, Vol 6, Issue 2
Abstract
Individual residential houses occupy a large area of land space. But multi storied buildings reduces the use of larger land area than the individual residential houses. A multi-story building is a building that supports two or more floors above the ground.A Single storey or multi-storey building is an active system. Thermal variation in the outdoor brings out thermal variations in the indoor. The roof of a single storey building receives the solar radiations directly and in the case of multi-storey building the top floor alone receives. The walls of the both type of buildings receive the solar radiations directly. The radiations from the roof and walls are propagated to the inside of each indoor of a multi-storied building. In a multi storied building the indoor temperature increases slowly to a steady state. Even if the outdoor temperature falls, the indoor temperature of the building does not fall. There exists a time lag for the rise and fall with the outdoor.Hence this study has been aimed to measure the inside roof, inside walls and indoor temperatures of the different floors. It has been observed that there are noticeable variations in the roof, walls and indoor temperatures between different floors.
