This document discusses cooling systems for compact buildings through passive and active cooling methods. Passive cooling involves design elements like planting trees, elevating the roof, using light-colored flooring and paints, and natural ventilation. Active cooling includes air conditioners, evaporative coolers, and using the roof design to incorporate windows and solar panels. The conclusion states that natural and passive cooling is more eco-friendly and can be used effectively in compact houses.

3. COOLING IN HOUSES CAN BE ACHIEVED BY
TWO METHODS
NATURAL OR ACTIVE COOLING
PASSIVE COOLING
Design of a compact
house for cooling

Active cooling

5. Planting trees
Nature – god’s gift
Vegetation should be
always 2 m away from
the house
Keep windows open at
morning
Keep a garden in front
of the house
Built the houses little
away form the road
Be friendly to the
environment

6. Elevation and overhanging in roofs
•By increasing the height
of the roof the heat
radiation is limited
Overhanging in roofing
limites the sun radiation
to enter inside the house
The roofing should
absorb less heat as
possible

7. HVAC system
(heating ventilating and air
conditioning )
Automatic close and
open valve , which use
the heat and cool from
the environment
In day – valve closed
In night – valve open

8. Flooring and radiant method
Clay tiles is better
Radiant method-
flooring in concret by
placing tubes for cooling
Rubber tubes
Case- holes are maded

9. Design of roof
The top design is
modified to cooling of
the building
The slope of the roof is
varied so the space
produced due to
variation is filled by
windows
This windows allow free
air to flow inside the
house

10. Design of roof
If the slope angle is
varied by 300-450
450 covers all the
sunlight for solar panel
300 covers the wind to
enter inside the house
Solar panel is placed all
over the roof to make
energy efficient
