Title: Energy Simulation for Sustainable Building with Application of Roof and Wall Insulation
Authors: Suman, B M
Issue Date: 28-Dec-2012
Abstract: The simulation study has been carried out for evaluation and performance of roof and wall insulation to be applied in building to assess its energy saving potential in air conditioned building and reduction in indoor air temperature to be achieved in unconditioned building during summer season. Heat conduction transfer functions or response factor methodology to predict the thermal history of multi layer slabs in the software TRNSYS [1], developed by Mitalas, Stephenson and Arseneault have been used for the calculation of transient heat transfer through walls and roof of building. The study has been undertaken for a period of one year for a single zone building in composite climate of India. Result of the study states that more than 29 % energy can be saved by treating a building with good insulation system.
