ANÁLISE DO DESEMPENHO TÉRMICO DE SISTEMAS DE VEDAÇÃO E COBERTURA DE UMA EDIFICAÇÃO EMPREGANDO O SOFTWARE ENERGYPLUS

Abstract

With the different types of climate that exist, even within a single country, it is not possible to say that a single type of fence system or roof system is the best. A building located in a colder climate does not require the same characteristics as a building located in a hot climate. Based on this, the importance of understanding the building's thermal performance according to the region's climate is emphasized. One of the ways to carry out this study is through computational analysis, using software developed specifically for this area. In this context, a study was carried out in the EnergyPlus software based on the climate of the city of Rio Verde - GO, through the analysis of two types of roofing system, ceramic tile and fiber cement tile, and three types of sealing system, exposed massive brick and 8 square-hole brick seated in the smallest and largest direction to find out which set of sealing system and roofing system would be better in the city under analysis. It was concluded that for the city in question, the set that obtained the best thermal performance was the fiber cement tile with the brick of 8 square holes laid in the smallest direction.
