Özet:

In this study, considering the climatic and meteorological conditions of Gümüşhane, the change of the insulation thickness (4-5-6 and 8 cm) and the total heat transfer coefficient for different insulation materials (XPS, EPS and Rock wool) are investigated. With these changing parameters, the annual energy need for heating is calculated based on the uninsulated and partially insulated condition (floor and ceiling insulated) and evaluated comparatively. Calculations are made with "TS 825 Calculation Program" created by the heat, water, sound and fire insulators association (İzoder) within the scope of TS 825 standards. Insulation thickness that should be applied in accordance with the wall elements which used in architectures can vary, thus the minimum insulation thickness to be applied for Gümüşhane province is calculated as 4 cm considering the wall cross-sectional properties of the sample architecture. As a result of the calculations, it has been observed that the annual energy need changes with the insulation material. It has been calculated that the insulation of the roof provides 27.6% energy saving compared to the completely uninsulated condition, and insulation of the floor and walls contacting the soil provides 16.9% energy saving. On the vertical wall contacting with air, this value varies between 10.5%-17% depending on the insulation material.
