Abstract

Creating an energy policy for a tropical hot-humid city, we faced obstacles typical of the less developed countries, as the lack of statistical data or proper climate files for computer simulations. Creativity and confrontation are better than the passive attitude that preceded us, so here we present the methodology used to calculate the policy’s application benefits. In consequence, with the available and collected data, four main building typologies, in eight main city’s orientations, was used to run computer simulations that, using real weather data, would let us obtain the free running inside temperatures and cooling loads. The calculations were used to define three quantities for a definite riverside city close to the Caribbean coast; the Potential Energy Savings, the Possible Improvement Investment Cost and the Thermal Non-Satisfaction Index. All of them at urban scale.
