Summary

PART 1: THE SIMPLIFIED ESTIMATION METHOD OF THE BUILDING'S SEASONAL HEAT LOAD BASED ON MONTHLY WEATHER AVERAGES. A SIMPLE METHOD OF PREDICTING A BUILDING'S SEASONAL HEAT LOAD BASED ON ONLY 36 MONTHLY WEATHER AVERAGES BY USING MULTIPLE REGRESSION ANALYSIS IS DEVELOPED. FOUR MULTIPLE REGRESSION ESTIMATION EQUATIONS FOR THE HEATING AND COOLING OF OFFICE BUILDINGS AND RESIDENTIAL BUILDINGS ARE VERIFIED TO BE VERY RELIABLE IN JAPAN AND IN SUBTROPICAL REGIONS. THESE EQUATIONS ARE LINEAR AND CONSIST OF ONLY 3 BUILDING VARIABLES AND 12 WEATHER VARIABLES. PART 2: ANNUAL HEAT LOAD DISTRIBUTION MAPS IN ASIA. THE EFFICIENCY OF INSULATION AND SOLAR SHADING IN DIFFERENT CLIMATIC REGIONS CAN BE OBSERVED BY USING THESE MAPS. FURTHERMORE, A METHOD TO MAKE BUILDING DESIGNS MORE SUITABLE CAN BE DEVELOPED.
