Duration: 01:03:13
Mat Santamouris is Professor of High Performance Architecture in the University of New South Wales in Australia and holds the Anita Lawrence Chair at the university.
In this talk he steps through all the aspects of passive & low energy elements that can be used to develop and maintain the ‘thermal balance’ of buildings of all types and in all locations.
He examines and explains various technological developments that are now at the forefront of enabling both the solid and transparent components of a building’s façade to all contribute towards passive cooling.
This is a must do talk enabling a recalibration of the concepts and techniques available to provide thermal comfort with the lowest possible energy consumption.
TARGET LEARNING OUTCOMES
At the completion of this course you will:
  • Understand the idea of ‘the thermal balance of buildings’.
  • Understand the ‘Framework of Passive Cooling’.
  • Appreciate the techniques and technologies to assist with Solar Protection & Control.
  • Appreciate the importance of Heat Protection of Opaque Elements of the buildings exterior.
  • Understand the technologies for Ventilative, Evaporative and Ground Cooling of buildings.
  • Appreciate the impact of Radiative Cooling on buildings
  • Reflect on the technological development of efficiencies in the cooling of buildings.
