Thermal comfort in vernacular architecture produced by Pomeranian descendants in southern Brazil

This study aimed to characterize the thermal comfort of the vernacular architecture produced by Pomeranian descendants in southern Brazil, based on in-situ data collection of external and internal characteristics. External characteristics were analyzed for a total of 126 houses. These data were used...

description This study aimed to characterize the thermal comfort of the vernacular architecture produced by Pomeranian descendants in southern Brazil, based on in-situ data collection of external and internal characteristics. External characteristics were analyzed for a total of 126 houses. These data were used to carry out a preliminary classification of regional architectural types. Then, 18 houses were selected, from the 126 analyzed previously, for the collection of architectural and construction data, obtaining a final classification of four architectural types, corresponding to different materials and constructive periods. The four selected types are within a 100-year time period (1870 to 1970), and were analyzed regarding thermal comfort. Results showed that the different types did not present high levels of comfort. The solar orientation had little influence on comfort results, and no significant differences were observed between the different types, although houses of type IV presented a slight thermal comfort improvement, when compared to the other architectural types. These few variations of the thermal behavior between the different solar orientations and the different architectural types could be explained by the high thermal capacity of the walls and the small window-to-wall opening area that the houses present, maintaining internal temperatures with a less variation, in comparison to the outdoor environment. Through this work, it was possible to address the complex interaction between climate, culture, and technology in the studied dwellings.

O presente artigo visou caracterizar o conforto térmico da arquitetura vernacular produzida por descendentes Pomeranos na região Sul do Brasil, a partir da coleta de dados in situ de características externas e internas. Para as características externas, foram analisadas um total de 126 casas. Com esses dados, foi realizada uma classificação preliminar dos tipos arquitetônicos da região. Após essa etapa, foram selecionadas 18 casas, das 126 analisadas anteriormente, para a coleta de dados arquitetônicos e construtivos. Com essa nova análise, se obteve a classificação final de quatro tipos arquitetônicos, com materiais e períodos construtivos distintos. Os quatro tipos selecionados estão em um recorte temporal de 100 anos (1870 a 1970), e foram analisados quanto ao conforto térmico. Foi possível observar que os diferentes tipos não apresentaram índices elevados de conforto. Observou-se também que a orientação solar pouco influenciou nas questões de conforto, assim como também não foram observadas diferenças significativas entre os diferentes tipos, embora as casas do Tipo IV terem apresentado uma sutil melhora de conforto térmico, quando comparado com os demais tipos arquitetônicos. Essas poucas variações do comportamento térmico entre as diferentes orientações solares e os diferentes tipos arquitetônicos podem ser explicadas pela elevada capacidade térmica das paredes e a pequena área de abertura na fachada que as casas apresentam, mantendo as temperaturas internas com menor variação, em relação ao ambiente externo. Através deste trabalho foi possível abordar a complexa interação entre clima, cultura e tecnologia nas habitações estudadas.
