Abstract
ROSAS LUSETT, Mireya Alicia; ESPUNA MUJICA, José Adán and GARCIA IZAGUIRRE, Víctor Manuel. Energetic expenses of walls and roofs used in the zone of Tamaulipas. Nova scientia [online]. 2015, vol.7, n.15, pp.514-528. ISSN 2007-0705.
This is a presentation showing the procedures and results obtained from the analysis of the energy transmitted in walls and roofs of the selected homes in the south zone of the state of Tamaulipas, one of the five zones established in the “Development and validating of a methodology to estimate the impacts in the saving of energy for the use of passive-constructive systems in the edification for different climates in México” project. This research was sponsored by the Energy Sector Sustainability Fund SENER - CONACYT S0019 - 2009-01 call, log under the project No. 118665. This project, which third stage of execution’s objective consisted in making use of the Ener- Habitat software, developed during the project’s second phase. With this software the comparative energy expenses of four constructive systems for walls and three constructive systems for roofs were determined. With the acquired information and through the use of the methodology developed to estimate the impacts on energy saving, the energetic price of each of the constructive systems was evaluated. With the acquired results it was determined which were the walls and roofs of less energy expense for the study zone.
