Evaluation of the improvement of thermal comfort with the incorporation of sustainable materials in self-built housing in Bogota, Colombia
Description
Abstract Were analyzed: Initial temperatures, before installing the new cover. Internal and external data were taken. The data is repeated with the new cover and compared with the initials to determine if the internal temperature of the dwelling was improved. Value of the data The data obtained allow us to take the first step to start possible research on recycled materials that could improve thermal comfort, the values were obtained from a house built in one of the urban edges of the city of Bogota. Data Data are being shared on indoor and outdoor temperatures taken before and after building a new roof in recycled Tetrapack.

Experimental Design, Materials and Methods The quantitative approach was made with the Methodology ISO 7730 Method Fanger establishes that not only the thermal balance is necessary in a space to have thermal comfort (de Dear & Brager, 2002), in addition to a suitable temperature, should be taken into account: a) Characteristics of the dress: insulation and total area thereof. b) Characteristics of the type of work: metabolic thermal load and air velocity. c) Characteristics of the environment: dry temperature, average radiant temperature, partial pressure of water vapour in the air and air velocity. Two factors were taken, time and temperature, the measurements were made every hour between 5:00 p.m. and 9:00 p.m. and in the early hours after 02:00 p.m.
