The second part:Optimization of energy consumption in residential buildings - physical and architectural characteristics of the building
The architecture of buildings along with the type of consumer culture in relation to Energy consumption management It can be very decisive .
The amount and manner of consumption of all types of fuel, water, electricity, etc … which are referred to as national resources, are directly related to the architectural structure of the space.
The traditional architecture of Iran in its time period and due to the limited access and use of national resources, started to create special methods to create cold and heat in the simplest and cheapest way in its residential and commercial spaces.. The use of architectural functional elements such as windbreaks and cellars … Also, using local materials such as wood, stone, mat, etc …It has been in this direction.
Although the implementation of many traditional architectural methods is not possible today, it can be done using methods
such as :
- Using technology in the production of new materials
- Taking advantage of environmental factors - sun radiation angle and wind direction
- Raising the level of awareness of the general public and experts - changing the lifestyle
- Improvement of implementation methods during construction
While preventing excessive consumption of energy, increase Productivity also provided.
According to the estimates made, by implementing topic 19 of the National Building Regulations (Energy saving) only with :
- Thermal insulation of the outer shell of the building
- Using intelligent control systems for utility equipment
which is one of the requirements of this topic, about 30 to 60% will be saved in the energy consumption of the building.
