摘要:It has been observed that existing low income group(LIG) houses are inefficient to provide thermal comfortin Raipur, Chhattisgarh. This makes more dependency on cooling equipment to achieve thermal comfort which leadsto more energy consumption. The objective of the present work is to investigate and enha nce the thermal comfort ofLIG house by passive cooling techniques. Different cases considered in the present study are, the effect of windows,green roof and green walls and shaded wall etc. on the indoor temperature of LIG house on May 20, 2016. Resultsconcluded that at summer during the early morning, when the outside temperature is lower than the insidetemperature, it reduces the room temperature but insufficient to provide thermal comfort. It is also concluded thatproviding green roof along with gre en walls enhance the indoor temperature of the house.
