Monitoreo energético experimental de vivienda unifamiliar compacta en un clima templado frio de Argentina

In this research work, the thermal-energy behaviour of compact dwellings between party walls built in low-density residential neighbourhoods in the city of Santa Rosa, La Pampa, Argentina (latitude: 36 º 27'S and longitude 64 º 27'W) is investigated. The objectives are to evaluate the indoor temperature and comfort conditions in winter through experimental monitoring, and to analyze the historical consumption of natural gas for heating. The results show that compact dwellings between party walls consume 50% less natural gas than single-family social houses in the same region. The Argentinian...
