Impact of solar shading geometry on building energy use in hot humid climates with special reference to Malaysia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
External solar shading devices can substantially reduce the cooling load of buildings and large energy savings can be achieved. Hence, intercepting the radiant heat wave before penetrating to the internal environment through envelope openings is the main
