Abstract
The hypothesis tested is whether fuel consumption returns for individual dwellings in a high rise building reflect the varying degrees of climatic loading to which such buildings are subjected. A multi-storey block has been chosen in order to study the effects of change of climate with height. The method of investigation and analysis is based simply on the assumption that changes in the climatic envelope around buildings are experienced within the buildings by the occupants who, in order to maintain levels of thermal comfort, adjust the internal environment by regulating the heat load. Fuel consumption returns are the means by which changes in the heat load and hence in the external environment are demonstrable. Statistical and wind tunnel analyses are compared.
