Impact of plants obscuration on energy balance: Theoretical and numerical study

Résumé

This article presents the numerical simulation of the energy effect of a solar mask created by a green wall on the thermal performance of a building envelope in a temperate climate in order to integrate it into thermal calculation codes. The document describes primarily the adaptation of a simplified prediction model. The simplified model was developed and validated on the basis of tests carried out with an experimental controlled occultation device by integrating all external parameters influencing heat exchanges (conduction, convection and radiation). A first validation of the numeric resolution algorithm of the preliminary model was realised. Then the model was supplemented by considerations related to the characteristics of the selected plants: ivy and Virginia creeper, such as the semi-transparent appearance of foliage plants and their geometric distribution. The numerical prediction was very close to the experimental values, and the mean error was about 1 °C. This difference makes it possible to validate the developed model.
