Passive Solar Performance of Tech House V
1985
The performance of a passive solar modular house located in Knoxville, Tennessee (TECH House V) was determined for the 1981-82 heating season. The 111 m/sup 2/ (1200 ft/sup 2/) house has 13.7 m/sup 2/ (144 ft/sup 2/) of south facing glass and 20 vertical water tubes. The auxiliary heat was measured directly while the net solar gain was calculated using hourly measured vertical insolation, weather, and inside-space temperature data. The solar collection efficiency was 64 percent and the solar fraction was 0.40.
