- Abstract
- This document presents five case studies on thermal performance of selected solar system designs which served as a vehicle for examining the applicability of the Draft Performance Criteria for Solar Heating and Cooling Systems in Residential Buildings. The purpose of this document was to identify shortcomings in the draft version of the performance criteria by means of attempting to implement the criteria. Those aspects of the criteria that require revision were highlighted.
