Abstract:Intense solar radiation is one of the key design problems for buildings in tropical regions. The recommended practice is to install shading devices, particularly to protect glazing systems. However, many design factors do not allow shading devices to be implemented in all cases; shading devices may not be appropriate to particular design concepts. To serve the designers' preference, alternative solutions should be provided. This study aims at investigating the performance of a new design alternative—the tilted… Show more
