As is displayed in the flow chart, the principles of insulation in cool and warm climate respectively differ to a large extent.
As to the situation of cool climate, we adopt the high-angled roof in order to be nearly parallel with the direction of the sun so that the direct exposition to the heat of sun is lessened as much as we can. By this, the temperature of the material won’t fluctuate within a large range. Meanwhile, thermal building material could enhance the heat storage insulation, preventing outflow, thus reduction of heat.
Adversely, in warm climate, reflective building material is indispensable with overhands for shade. The direction of the roof is almost vertical to the direction of the sun to lead to external insulation reflection. By this, ventilation would result in the removal of heat storage rather than reduction.
Through the different working principles of ventilation, we are fascinated by the masterpieces of modern science and technology.
