I. Introduction
Presents a study of solar electricity generation and energy
demand for heating and cooling of housing units’ assemblages (two-storey single
family housing units with climatic data of Montreal, Canada served as input for
the analysis).
住宅'群集の加熱および冷却のための太陽光発電とエネルギー需要の調査
Parameters studied:
- Geometric shapes of individual units [個々のユニットの幾何学的形状]
- Density of units in a neighborhood [近所のユニットの密度]
- The site layout [サイトのレイアウト]
Main objective: the evaluation of
alternative patterns of neighborhood to achieve potential net zero energy
communities.
近所の別のパターンの評価は潜在的な正味ゼロエネルギー社会を実現しています。
Result: a significant increase in total electricity generation
(up to 33%) can be achieved by the building integrated photovoltaic (BIPV)
systems of housing units of certain shape-site configurations, as compared to
the reference.

Conclusion
1. Energy generation
BIPV electricity production of roofs: affected primarily by the area of near-south facing roof
surfaces, shade and orientation. Active roof area and the total
electricity generation on a neighborhood scale are largely affected by the shape of housing units.
アクティブな屋根の面積や町内規模での総発電量は、主に住宅の形状の影響を受けています。
The
density effect:
◦ Attached
units on multiplex configurations has the effect of increasing total active
roof surface in some configurations. On
the other hand, it may produce some mutual shading by some configurations of L.[多重構成で接続されているユニットは、一部の構成では増加合計アクティブ屋根 面の効果があります。その一方で、それ はLの一部の構成でいくつかの相互遮蔽が生成されることがあり ]
◦ The row effect does not have significant effect on
electricity generation for a row distance
larger than 5m. [行の効果は、5メートルよりも大きな行距離の発電量に大きな影響を与えません。]
The
site layout effect: mainly
due to its interaction with the housing shape design. A favorable combination
of shapes and layout can result in significant increase of energy production.
形状やレイアウトの有利な組み合わせは、エネルギー生産の大幅な増加をもたらすことができます。
Shift
of peak production: can
be beneficial for matching grid requirements.
A difference as large as 6h of peak generation of different units can be
achieved in a specific site layout.

2. Energy consumption for heating and cooling
Shape effect:
◦ Deviation of shape from the rectangle generally involves
increase in heating load.
◦ The increasing of
heating load of non-rectangular shapes is associated with decrease of the
solar gain in winter.[非矩形形状の暖房負荷の増加は、冬の太陽の利得の減少に関連付けられています。]
◦ Cooling load is effected
by increase of solar radiation on the rotated wings and by the large envelope area. [冷房負荷は、回転翼の上に太陽放射の増加により、大封筒エリアによって行われる。]
The
density effect: Attaching
units in multiplexes reduces heating loads by up to 30% and cooling load by up
to 50% compared to the detached configurations of the same site. [多重にユニットを接続すると、同じサイトの一戸建ての構成に比べて最大50%を30%、冷房負荷を最大で加熱負荷を低減します。]
The
row effect: the heating load is
inversely related to the distance between rows, while the cooling load of both
exposed and obstructed rows is significantly lower than for the single row
configuration. [露出し、閉塞された行の両方の冷房負荷が単一の行の構成に比べて有意に低いながら加熱負荷は、反比例の行の間の距離に関係しています。]
The
site layout effect: Units
in curved layouts have generally larger heating and cooling loads than in a
straight road configuration. [湾曲したレイアウトでの単位は、一般に大規模な加熱と直線道路の構成に比べて冷房負荷を持っている。]
3. Balance between electricity generation and
electricity use
The general comparison between energy consumption and the
energy production, show that several unit shapes included in this study are
very close to achieve net zero energy status. Manipulation of roof design can
help in improving production/consumption ratio.
この研究に含まれるいくつかのユニットの形状は非常にネットゼロエネルギー状態を達成するために接近している。屋根のデザインの操作は、生産/消費比率の改善に役立ちます。

4. Conclusion remarks
The investigation presented in this paper takes into
account energy efficiency consideration from the earliest stages of the design
process.

The methodology is
applicable to any climate, with some modifications to the basic design
assumptions required to address specific climate conditions.
