  • Parametric investigation on the influence of the building shape factor on the energy demand for heating and cooling in timber-glass buildings
    Premrov, Miroslav, 1967- ; Žegarac Leskovar, Vesna ; Vidovič, Kaja
    The presented research is based on a case study of a one-storey house built in the prefabricated passive timber-frame structural system taking climate data for Ljubljana and München into ... consideration. The computer based analysis software ECOTECT is used to perform the calculations. Design of the building measured with the aspect ratio (a/b) as a ratio between the shading and the shaded façade and the buildingćs shape factor (A/V) varies for three different selected glazing-to-wall area ratios (AGAW) in the south façade of the building. Therefore, different possibilities of a square, rectangular, L, T and U shapes of the building are parametrical analysed with an important remark that the ground floor area and the heated volume remains constant during the whole research.
