The objective of this paper is to know the thermal behavior of a computer room in different class. It is located at University Headquarters in the city of Orán (Province of Salta, Argentina), a place characterized by having a warm-humid climate. The simulation is carried out for 10 days and coincides with the class period, using data from National Meteorological Service and on-site measurements. The simulation software used is SIMEDIF. The work methodology includes recognition activities, measuring, data and scenes preparation, simulation and analysis of results. From the results obtained, uncomfortable situations are detected and thermal load required to overcome them is calculated. It is necessary to incorporate bioclimatic and passive cooling strategies in order to achieve hygro-thermal comfort with minimum energy consumption and minimum environmental impact. The importance of the wo...

The aim of this paper is to know the electricity consumption of an educational institution by the use of air conditioning equipment for thermal comfort, as well as the local and environmental impact that such consumption generates. The institution is located in the city of Orán (North of Argentina), in bioclimatic zone IIb (IRAM Standard 11603) and it is a University headquarters. For its operation it has 2 properties: property 1 is located in a downtown area and is the study unit. Applying different techniques and instruments is investigated about the climatic conditions of the region, the structural and functional aspects of the institution building, the dynamics of the educational community and its technological preferences for the achievement of thermal comfort, the electricity consumption in the period 2013-2018 and the areas of electricity demand. With all the data obtained and, a...
