[Equest-users] GRIHA Guidelines

[Jones, Christopher via Equest-users]

Hello,
I looked online for the GRIHA Guidelines. I found the GRIHA Manuals but not any Guidelines.

Could you possibly provide a link to the Guideline, Volume 3?

Thank you!

Hi Sitha,

I mean you are trying to analyse the WWR based analysis on different facades.
Try configuring out different percentages of glazing percentage of the wall on different facades and analyse it.
If one has to get the same overall load then one can increase equipment or lighting load by iterating it.
For purpose you can have different WWR on different facades.
As per me in Northern hemisphere of the globe one can get the best as facade as North west which can have the best  varying WWR and South or south west as worst facade which can have least varying WWR.
For reference you can have a look at the GRIHA guideline volume-3 as it has that section which has window glazing and WWR based insolation and other discussions.

So as per me if you have to take least amount of WWR then choose south-west.


Thanks,

Hello everyone,

I have been doing an academic project where i am trying to find out the best percentage of facade glazing which results in optimal energy consumption in IT office building.

Is there a possibility of doing parametric studies pertaining to change in facade glazing percentage or lets say WWR.

I tried a floor plan with three different types of glasses and different percentages.
But as i reduce the facade percentage from 100% to 30%  the energy consumption report says that there is reduction in energy consumption.but There is no difference in lighting loads . the only change in the report is for space cooling. The reduction in the glazing definitely results in increase in lighting loads in a fully conditioned office building.

This is not being projected in the results.could some one help me on how to proceed in this regard.

Thanking you,
