Brise-soleil, recurso arquitectónico de control solar. Evolución y propuesta de diseño optimizado para Camagüey
Abstract
Resumen: La principal estrategia de
refrescamiento en climas cálidos, como el
de Cuba, es el control solar, sin embargo el
brise-soleil quedó en desuso y aumentó la
carpintería de vidrio sin protección solar
ignorándose los costos de sus afectaciones.
Los objetivos perseguidos son:
caracterizar la evolución histórica de la
utilización del brise-soleil como recurso de
sombreado y obtener los ángulos de diseño
de elementos de protección solar para
que sean más eficientes y económicos.
Mediante modelación virtual (validada con
experimento en maqueta) se revisaron los
parámetros propuestos por la normativa
vigente y otros documentos nacionales
en cuanto a diseño de protección solar en
arquitectura. Se cambió para la ciudad
de Camagüey el criterio de un solo tipo
de elemento de protección solar en las
fachadas norte y sur; se demostró que
elementos múltiples son más eficientes
y se propusieron ángulos de diseño
optimizados.
Palabras clave: control solar, brise-soleil,
dispositivos de protección solar.
Brise-soleil, architectural resource
of solar control. Evolution and design
proposal optimized for Camagüey
Abstract: The main cooling strategy in
warm climates, as that of Cuba, is the
solar control. However, the sun brake
was in disuse, so glass windows without
solar protection was increased and the
costs of its affectations were ignored.
The objectives of this paper are: to
characterize the historical evolution of
the use of brise-soleil as a shady resource
and to obtain the designing angles for
solar protection elements so that they can
be more efficient and economic. Through
virtual simulation (validated through a
scale model experiment) the parameters
proposed by the current rules and other
national documents regarding the design
of solar protection in architecture were
checked. The criterion for a single type of
solar protection element in the north and
south facades in the city of Camaguey was
changed. Besides, it was demonstrated that
multiple elements are more efficient. On
the other hand, optimized angles for the
design of these elements were proposed.
Key words: solar control, brise-soleil (sun
brake), shading devices.
