Bioclimatic Analysis Based on the Climate of Greece: An Approach towards Minimization of Energy Consumption in Buildings | Chapter 6 | Current Approaches in Science and Technology Research Vol. 7

 energy and other environmental sources, as well as various natural climate phenomena. As a result, energy consumption in the building sector is reduced, while building users are provided with thermal comfort. This work includes a bioclimatic analysis of regions of Greece with varying climatic features. KENAK 2017 classifies Greece's prefectures into four climate zones: A, B, C, and D are the letter combinations. The bioclimatic study is carried out with the help of the bioclimatic charts created by the Olgyay brothers Victor and Aladar. Victor and Aladar Olgyay's quantitative and qualitative bioclimatic charts are created for two Prefectures in each climate zone using relevant climatic data from the National Meteorological Service. The average values of the passive demands for sun radiation, shade, wind, and humidity are calculated for each month and climate zone. utilizing quantitative bioclimatic charts Qualitative bioclimatic charts are used to define passive heating and cooling strategies. The regression lines and second degree polynomials equations are then generated by using monthly charts of solar, radiant, wind, and humidity demands for each climate zone. These formulae can be used to easily compute passive thermal and cooling requirements for each month, and the results can be applied to areas with similar climates. As a result, the findings of this study can be used as a guide for building designers. They will be aware of the passive heating and cooling techniques that must be used in each building based on its climatic zone.
