Abstract


The growing social awareness with regard to sustainable construction and energy efficiency in buildings is leading specifications writers and end users to take into account new construction solutions. However, the introduction of these construction solutions into the market is slow and difficult owing to the limitations of the recognised thermal simulation tools, which do not allow estimations to be made when integrating innovative systems, and to the difficulty of validating their efficiency in actual buildings before marketing them. The present study analyses the energy efficiency of a ventilated façade made up of near-infrared reflective ceramic tiles, by integrating a mathematical model validated in the CIES Living Lab experimental building in Castellón into the EnergyPlus program.
