Passive Climatization of Residential Buildings in Tropical Climates: A Parametric Study with Respect to Ho Chi Minh City Climate
Passive climatization is normally defined as climatization of a building without any auxiliary heating or cooling. The means to achieve a desired indoor climate is the building itself, its architecture and technical design, as well as the local climate. The local climate is in this respect the ambient temperature, solar shading by trees, bushes or other buildings, and the local wind. Passively climatized buildings are not necessarily the same as vernacular buildings, which are built in accordance to building tradition with local materials and using local craftmanship. New knowledge and new materials can be used in a passively climatized building and the indoor climate can be improved by a reasonably increased usage of resources. One aim with a study like this is to point out new strategies for buildings which are passively cooled, or possibly to confirm the building tradition.
