Diseño de Jardín Vertical para Mejorar el Confort Térmico. Caso de Estudio: Cafetería UTPL

Abstract

The implementation of vertical gardens is a new sustainable strategy linked to the use of vegetation in the systems of closure and coverage both horizontally and vertically of buildings, and is an innovative constructive technique to improve the thermal comfort of certain areas that perceive the rays Directly.

The growing concern about the problems affecting the environment has led to a greater interest in a responsible architecture that responds better to environmental conditions and requires less energy consumption. The present research proposes the construction of two experimental modules of equal characteristics, where one of the modules will remain as a witness, while the second experimental box will maintain the Vertical Gardening system, which will help us to show the level of behavior of The Vegetable Envelope within the space that in this case was carried out on a smaller scale in the simulation booths. This system will be applied to a simulation using the ECOTEC software, applied in the UTPL cafeteria area on a macro scale
