Abstract
In a report published by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, CO2 produced by human activities is the main cause of global warming, and for that published by the United Nations Program United for Environment and the Global Alliance for Buildings and Construction, the building sector accounts for approximately 37% of greenhouse gases globally. Therefore, collective or individual resilience is essential and calls on researchers to provide palliative solutions in the field of housing, including reducing the energy consumption of buildings. Studies have been done in this direction but the problem still remains relevant. Using an innovative approach, we are interested in the bioclimatic design of buildings in dry tropical climates. The objective of our study aims to design strategies or techniques for designing a bioclimatic building. The research methodology will be based on experimental and numerical studies followed by a comparative study of the results of these. The experimental and numerical results made it possible to validate the strategies or design techniques thereof. By comparing the thermal and hygrothermal parameters of the control and bioclimatic buildings, we noted an improvement in the thermal and hygrothermal environment from 6°C to 7.5°C and 10% to 14% relative humidity within a bioclimatic building. compared to that of a model building offering interesting perspectives for the eco-design of habitats.
Author Keywords: global warming, bioclimatic design, dry tropical climate, innovative approach, thermal or hygrothermal comfort, bioclimatic building.
