En el presente trabajo de investigación, principalmente se ha estudiado con minuciosidad las condiciones acústicas de una muestra representativa de teatros pertenecientes al patrimonio histórico-arquitectónico andaluz, al mismo tiempo que se ha hecho una valoración (cualificación) individual y global de los mismos. El trabajo se ha iniciado...

The AURA 1.0 prototype is a sustainable social housing proposal, designed by the University of Seville and built for the first Latin American edition of the prestigious Solar Decathlon competition. Different conditioning strategies were integrated into this prototype, optimized for a tropical climate, and focused on contributing positively to...

It is known that glazed openings are very important elements in the energetic behavior of buildings, especially in Mediterranean climates where there are many hours of solar radiation. The objective of this study was to determine the influence of solar protection on the energy demand of public housing structures in these climates. To this end,...

Abstract The current European energy policies have an influence on the need to rehabilitate the housing stock in order to meet the objectives of the European Union. Most of this housing stock was built without any type of energy regulation in adverse technical and economic conditions and thus is now energetically obsolete. The major...

Current energy e ciency policies in buildings foster the promotion of energy retrofitting of the existing stock. In southern Spain, the most extensive public sector is that of educational buildings, which is especially subject to significant internal loads due to high occupancy. A large fraction of the energy retrofit strategies conducted to...

The aim of this paper is to broaden understanding of the social housing prototype that students and researchers at the University of Seville developed in response to tropical climate conditions to achieve the maximum level of hygrothermal comfort through the use of passive retrofit strategies. This prototype, known as Aura 1.0, was presented at...

One of the main retrofitting strategies in warm climates is the reduction of the effects of solar radiation. Cooling loads, and in turn, cooling consumption, can be reduced through the implementation of reflective materials such as solar control films. However, these devices may also negatively affect daylight illuminance conditions and the...
