Abstract

This paper introduces an original approach for the evaluation of the cooling load due to the solar radiation incident on the glazed surface of a building. This approach is based on a newly introduced parameter called Solar Response Factor, defined as the overall convective heat flux released by the building envelope to the indoor space per unit radiant heat flux acting on the outer surface of the glazing.
