The heating of swimming pools using flat plate collectors of polyurethane, is a known practice in our environment, and has technical and economic justification, in places where there is excellent solar radiation, the water of the network is cold (05-15 °C), as well as the ambient temperatures descend at night about 5 to 10 ° C, requiring intensive use of the pool throughout the 12 months of the year, whether for recreational, tourist or therapeutic purposes- The aim of the heating of the pool is to achieve comfort temperatures in the pool water, in a range of 28-32 ° C, as well as to avoid the complementary consumption of electrical energy, and / or LPG, mainly along the coldest seasonal period of the year in southern Peru (April - August), thus extending the use of the pool to almost 12 months. An investment of this nature has a return on capital of less than 1 year and results in an...

Dentro del proyecto Diseño, Materiales y Dispositivos para Casas Altoandinas Resistentes a Heladas, auspiciado por PROCYT/CONCYTEC en convenio con la UNI y la UNJBG, se evaluó el comportamiento térmico de una posta de salud construida el año 2010, ya que en su desarrollo arquitectónico tiene incorporado una pared en piedra, colector- acumulador de calor, obtenido por transferencia de calor solar térmica. La posta se encuentra ubicada en el distrito de Tóquela, en la Región-Tacna a 3600 msnm. Se realizaron evaluaciones de la temperatura, tanto en los meses de verano como en los meses de invierno, del año 2013. La data obtenida dando cuenta de los niveles de temperatura alcanzados, tanto en exteriores como en interiores de los de la posta, permite corroborar la factibilidad de usar este tipo de pared en zonas frías.
