Energy Conservation Analysis of Various Green Roof Systems
@article{elik2010EnergyCA, title={Energy Conservation Analysis of Various Green Roof Systems}, author={Serdar Çelik and Susan M. Morgan and William A. Retzlaff}, journal={2010 IEEE Green Technologies Conference}, year={2010}, pages={1-4} }
The present paper illustrates an experimental analysis on the comparative analysis of air-conditioning energy savings of different green roof applications based on experimental measurements. Tests were carried out on nine different green roof samples, involving three types of growth media (lava, arkalyte, pumice) matched with three sedum types (kamtchaticum, spurium, sexangulare). Temperature readings at the bases of each sample were recorded for 32 months continuously at every 15 minutes. The…
