DESIGN OF TROPICAL HUMID CLIMATE STRATEGY

Climate has a strong impact on the formation of a building design. Climate of a region will affect the response of user activity in the form of comfort. The response of each draft climate typology form shapes generally known by the local architecture. 
Characteristics of the humid tropical climate has degrees humidity and rainfall are high. The impact of these conditions there is a lot of openings and a shade sosoran. Throughout the year have average temperatures are high, so the building has openings memepengaruhi consider air flow. The condition is associated with a low diurnal around 8 degrees Celsius, due to low temperature variation. Solar radiation varies with the condition often cloudy. 
The purpose of the design in the humid tropics is to reduce the internal temperature, ventilation to maximize the effectiveness of evaporation, protection against sun, rain and insects. Several strategies can be developed in a humid tropical climate, among others:
The temperature in the room it should not be higher than the outside temperature. The greatest potential is to maximize shading.
- Enlarge the volume of ventilation to remove the heat in the room
Keeping Mean Radiant Temperature (average radiation temperature) as low as possible with a reflective roof, ceiling separate, ventilated attic, low emissive roof materials, reflective foil above the ceiling, insulated ceiling.
Lightweight building materials has attempted to speed up the cooling at night.
- East and west elevation avoided as possible. The walls are reflective and have good insulation.
North and south orientation has cultivated large openings for ventilation. The room inside the building sought to encourage cross-ventilation.
- Openings were made for protection against sun, rain, insects.
- There are spaces that can optimize the entry of fresh air. The orientation of the building should consider the flow of cold air entering the building.
- Conflicts between the orientation into account solar radiation and air flow should be completed under the control of solar radiation, with a draft which modifies the aspect of building and landscaping to direct the flow of fresh air.
- For a single building should consider the more fresh air flow.
