Análise térmica e energética em um prédio institucional da UFOPA visando a eficiência energética

Abstract

Population growth and increasing dependence on human beings to consume electricity have caused electricity use to rise in recent times, making it a problematic issue in both environmental and financial issues. With this methods are being used to soften this situation, such as Energy Efficiency that aims at the rational consumption of energy and also seeks through the bioclimatic architecture better thermal comfort for users. The work is a study in block 03 of the Tapajós Campus, a building of the Institute of Engineering and Geosciences IEG of the Federal University of the West of Pará - UFOPA in Santarém, based on the techniques proposed in Lamberts literature, bioclimatic architecture and comfort measuring and analyzing the temperatures and humidity at specific points of each building environment and estimating the electric consumption of the same. In conclusion, it was noticed the need to create proposals for improvement of the building studied in this work, taking advantage of the light and ventilation of the external environment so that it reduces energy consumption and consequently reduce costs, worrying that users of the environments are always feeling in constant thermal comfort.
