Estudo e simulação de uma habitação de interesse social e sua relação com o regulamento técnico da qualidade para o nível de eficiência energética

Abstract

Simulation of a single-family residence social interest in prescriptive and simulation methods found in the RTQ-R (Quality Technical Regulation for Energy Efficiency Level Residential Buildings) part of the energy efficiency seal Procel Edifica program created by the Ministry of Mines and Energy in partnership with the Federal Government. This study compares and evaluates the methods used to qualify the energy residential buildings in Brazil. Based on the results obtained in the simulations proposes possible means of increasing the environmental comfort and reduce energy consumption of this type of building. The assessment is made in a typical building and minimum standards required by the MCMV (Minha Casa, Minha Vida), in the city of Porto Alegre in Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil. The study is comparative and adopts different construction criteria, including: the expansion of openings to compare the influence of ventilation and lighting; changing the external absorptivity of residence; shading of the openings will result in different absorption of heat and the influence of solar orientation of the building. It was observed that the evaluation criteria found in the RTQ-R, for this bioclimatic zone of Brazil, there is a greater concern with the warm temperatures and, for these, the measures taken in order to enlarge the comfort proved beneficial. Changing the absorptivity the outer covering of the residence resulted in greater efficiency among the other measures adopted. When making evaluations with the cold and warm temperatures simultaneously and with the same degree of importance, practically, we have a compensation in the results, which leads us to understand why the RTQ-R gives priority to hot temperatures. When evaluated the two extremes of temperatures focusing on the environmental comfort, it is clear that the results found, it is more logical to treat natural extreme measures more harmful to the comfort temperature, so that at the other end, can be used a system artificial heat treatment but with less economic impact. A thermal treatment system could be the use of geothermal potential. Another factor considered is that RTQ-R could be more selective and also proved to be confused. In this paper we propose a careful assessment in relation to environmental comfort to meet the needs of users.
