Strategy1:HeatHarvesting
-Openwindowsonsoutheastand southwestfacesforheatentryvia Radiation,Conduction,and Convection.
-Southernroomsreceivemore heatthanNorthernones.
-Createstackeffectbyopening courtyardwindows,pullingwarm airdeeper.
-Passagesfacilitateairmixing, ensuringNorthernroomsalso benefitfromheat.
Strategy2:HeatConserving
-Appliedwhenexternal temperaturesarebelow16 degreesCelsius.
-Keepallwindowsclosedtoretain heatwithinthebuilding.
-Preventlossofheatfromvarious sourceslikeequipment,human bodies,etc.
-Harvestsolarheatonlythrough radiationpassingthroughglass.
