Abstract
Furthermore, under steady-periodic conditions, the use of the Solar Response Factor allows an easy analytical estimation of the cooling load due to solar gains. The reliability of this approach is successfully proven by comparison with a series of simulations carried out with EnergyPlus. The results provide very useful information for optimizing the thermal response of an enclosure to periodic solar heat gains.
