The purpose of the study was to demonstrate the benefits of a model for scientific research in the sense that a construction system with a vegetated enclosure could benefit the internal environment of Juliaca in winter. To do this, we used an experimental procedure to compare the thermal resistance of a fifth-scale adobe high Andean house without vegetation and a house built in the climatic zone with vegetated facades. It simultaneously records the internal surface temperature, the internal air temperature, and the external environmental conditions. The results obtained show that the use of photosystems in buildings is an effective passive technique to reduce energy consumption due to its ability to insulate and protect internal thermal conditions.

According to recent studies, about 19% of the population in Peru is at risk of suffering from respiratory diseases due to frost, which is a drop in temperature below 0°C and causes a decrease in thermal comfort inside homes. In addition to these respiratory diseases, frost also increases the risk of other cold-related health conditions, such as hypothermia and circulatory diseases. Therefore, it is important to implement measures to improve thermal conditioning and reduce the risks of these diseases in the affected population. For this reason, the purpose is to improve thermal conditioning through the use of natural insulation. An investigation was carried out in the district of Taraco, using a rural house as a sample. The internal and external temperatures of the house were measured every half hour for 24 hours, and plans of the house were drawn up to collect information. It is proposed to make a natural thermal insulator with quinoa, to increase the temperature by 2 °C inside the house during the night. The thermal conductivity of the material will be evaluated. This study seeks to promote the use of local materials and thermal comfort to achieve sustainable development in the affected population and can be replicated in other areas of the country.

El propósito del estudio fue demostrar los beneficios de un modelo para la investigación científica en el sentido de que un sistema constructivo con cerramiento vegetal podría empeorar el ambiente interno de Juliaca en invierno. Para ello, utilizamos un procedimiento experimental para comparar la resistencia térmica de una casa alta andina de adobe de quinta escala sin vegetación y una casa construida en la zona climática con fachadas vegetadas. Registra simultáneamente la temperatura de la superficie interna, la temperatura del aire interno y las condiciones ambientales externas.Los resultados obtenidos muestran que el uso de fotosistemas en edificios es una técnica pasiva eficaz para reducir el consumo de energía debido a su capacidad para aislar y proteger las condiciones térmicas internas.
