GONZALEZ COURET, Dania  e  MARTINEZ CABRERA, Rolando. System of shading devices for buildings in Cuba. Case Study. Arquitectura y Urbanismo [online]. 2014, vol.35, n.3, pp.5-17. ISSN 1815-5898.

This paper reports the results of research conducted in order to propose a system of lightweight sun protection devices that can be produced in Cuba and added to the facades of the buildings in order to reduce the heat load through the architectural envelope and the energy consumption. For this, a modular indoor air-conditioned space with three possible functions, of which the requirements were derived to satisfy the elements of sun protection design, was defined. Its performance in terms of reduced heat transfer and natural lighting inside was assessed using automated simulation with Ecotect V5. The application in a case study helped to show that the required investment for the solar protection of the building facade can be amortized in less than two years from reducing air conditioning load.
