Therefore, it is pertinent to analyze its impact on Colombian architecture, specifically on Social Housing (SH), the type of building most frequently built in the country. The purpose of this research was to get to know the thermal performance of current SH, in relation to climate change, based on a standard model for the most populated cities in Colombia, namely Bogotá, Medellín, and Cali. This model was made using computer simulations in three future scenarios (2030/2050/2080), which allowed diagnosing how climate change will affect the thermal comfort of the occupants. The results show that, of the total number of scenarios evaluated (576), only 18.9% are in an acceptable range of time in thermal comfort (>70%). This indicates that most of the SH currently built in Colombia do not provide thermal comfort conditions either under a climate change scenario or in the current scenario, since in both situations the favorable cases represent a low percentage with respect to the total number of cases evaluated.","PeriodicalId":41346,"journal":{"name":"Revista Habitat Sustentable","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2023-06-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47441926","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study shows the measurement process carried out on a built module, which allowed calibrating and validating the model using simulation software, to propose improvements in the design that may contribute to future constructions. Taking the adaptive thermal comfort model as a reference, it was confirmed that indoor temperatures were below thermal comfort limits in the early hours of the morning and well above them close to noon, by around 6 ºC and 7 ºC respectively. With the application of complementary bioclimatic strategies, it was possible to considerably improve indoor thermal conditions, although not enough to reach comfort early in the morning. This is because the night-time outdoor temperatures are very low, the building is uninhabited all night long, there is no thermal mass in the envelope, and there are no active solar systems or mechanical air conditioning.","PeriodicalId":41346,"journal":{"name":"Revista Habitat Sustentable","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2023-06-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45400127","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This work documents the use in vernacular dwellings in Queretaro, Mexico, of an efficient attic-type passive system, called \"tapanco\", consisting of an inert air chamber that functions as a thermal buffer. A case was evaluated by applying measurement methodologies with thermo-hygrometers, complemented with thermography and thermo-wind simulation.
