Download or read book Site Planning for Solar Access written by Duncan Erley and published by DIANE Publishing. This book was released on 1997-04 with total page 154 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This manual is intended to guide developers, site planners, and builders in the design of residential developments for solar access. Planning for solar access means laying out buildings, roads, landscaping, and open space so that solar collectors, whether actually in place or merely planned for the future, can get direct sunlight to permit the use of solar energy for space heating, water heating, or air conditioning. Appendices: glossary, skyspace angles, shadow length tables and equation, and determining density. Extensive references. 120 charts and tables.

Download or read book Passive Solar Architecture written by David Bainbridge and published by Chelsea Green Publishing. This book was released on 2011-08-18 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: New buildings can be designed to be solar oriented, naturally heated and cooled, naturally lit and ventilated, and made with renewable, sustainable materials—no matter the location or climate. In this comprehensive overview of passive solar design, two of America’s solar pioneers give homeowners, architects, designers, and builders the keys to successfully harnessing the sun and maximizing climate resources for heating, cooling, ventilation, and daylighting. Bainbridge and Haggard draw upon examples from their own experiences, as well as those of others, of more than three decades to offer both overarching principles as well as the details and formulas needed to successfully design a more comfortable, healthy, and secure place in which to live, laugh, dance, and be comfortable. Even if the power goes off. Passive Solar Architecture also discusses “greener” and more-sustainable building materials and how to use them, and explores the historical roots of green design that have made possible buildings that produce more energy and other resources than they use.

Download or read book The Passive Solar House written by James Kachadorian and published by Chelsea Green Publishing. This book was released on 2006-07-31 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Revised and Expanded Edition - Includes CD-ROM with Custom Design Software For the past ten years The Passive Solar House has offered proven techniques for building homes that heat and cool themselves, using readily available materials and methods familiar to all building contractors and many do-it-yourself homeowners. True to this innovative, straightforward approach, the new edition of this best-selling guide includes CSOL passive solar design software, making it easier than ever to heat your home with the power of the sun. Since The Passive Solar House was first published, passive solar construction expert James Kachadorian has perfected user-friendly, Windows-compatible software to supplement the design process explained in the book by allowing homeowners/designers to enter the specifications of their design and see how changing a variable will affect its energy efficiency. This is the building book for a world of climbing energy costs. Applicable to diverse regions, climates, budgets, and styles of architecture, Kachadorian's techniques translate the essentials of timeless solar design into practical wisdom for today's solar builders. Profiles of successful passive solar design, construction, and retrofit projects from readers of the first edition provide inspiration to first-time homebuilders and renovators alike.

Download or read book Passive Solar Buildings written by J. Douglas Balcomb and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 1992 with total page 558 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Describes developments in passive solar technology that will save time, energy, and resources in planning for the buildings of the future.This companion to Passive Cooling and Solar Building Architecture (volumes 8 and 9) describes developments in passive solar technology that will save time, energy, and resources in planning for the buildings of the future. It is filled with tips and useful research for architects and designers and includes three substantial chapters on general modeling. Passive solar heating works. Properly designed and constructed, it is cost-effective, practical, comfortable, and aesthetic. Balcomb's introductory remarks set the tone for the rest of the contributions, which describe the considerable record of achievements in passive solar heating. Balcomb summarizes and evaluates the era between 1976 and 1983 when most of the major developments took place and highlights the design features that have contributed to effective buildings. Three chapters cover modeling passive systems (applicable to both heating and cooling), and six chapters focus on the application of passive solar heating, with emphasis on components, analytical results for specific systems, test modules, subsystem integration into buildings, performance monitoring and results, and design tools.J. Douglas Balcomb is a Principal Engineer with the Solar Energy Research Institute.

Download or read book Energy Modeling in Architectural Design written by Timothy L. Hemsath and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-07-06 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Energy Modeling in Architectural Design demonstrates how design elements can lead to energy savings, to help you reduce the energy footprint of your buildings. In addition to identifying climate opportunities, you’ll also learn fundamental passive design elements for software-agnostic energy modeling of your projects from conception. Using parametric models and testing each element during design will lead you to create beautiful and high-performance buildings. Illustrated with more than 100 color images, this book also includes a pattern guide for high-performance buildings, discusses energy and daylighting optimization, and has a glossary for easy reference.
