INTRODUCTION
.
The concept of using water on roofs as a moderator of the
indoor climate has long been recognized and practiced. Recently
investigators have begun to quantify its energy saving potentials
[1-10]. In 1967-68 a small-scale prototype was tested in Phoenix,
Arizona; it was found that throughout a normal year the room air
temperatures could be maintained between 17 and 28°C without supple-
mentary heating or cooling [l-3]. A full-size test house was tested
in Atascadero, California during 1973 and 1974. The applicability
of the system in the Atascadero climate was proved [5-6]. Data on
the performance of a roof pond solar house located on the Campus of
New Mexico State University in Las Cruces, New Mexico has also shown
that such a system operates well [8] in this climate. Heating season
performance of a mobile/modular home which incorporated roof pond
with insulated clerestory windows across the roof was tested during
1978-1979 in Los Alamos, New Mexico [9]; this system provided nearly
90% of the heating energy requirements of the structure in the 7800
DD (65°F base) climate of Los Alamos. Clark, et al.· [10] developed
a· computer model which predicted that a substantial reduction in
cooling energy requirements is possible even in the more humid
regions of the United States if the roof pond is provided with eva-
porative enhancement. Other studies have shown the advantages of
water-flooded roofs for cooling purposes [11-13].
The act ivi ties referred to above have demonstrated that roof
pond systems have substantial potentials for reducing auxi 1 i ary
energy consumption in climates requiring both heating and cooling.
In order to provide an improved engineering basis for designing and
operating a roof pond system, it is desirable to have a general
simulation capability which permits examination of the performance
of buildings utilizing roof ponds in order to study the effect of
various parameters in different climates. The purpose of the work
reported here was to develop a public domain simulation model of
sufficient flexibility to (1) permit rapid evaluation of heating and
cooling potentials of roof pond systems, and (2) to optimize parame-
ters such as insulation thicknesses and pond and evaporative layer
depths. This model will be incorporated into the public domain
building energy analysis computer program BLAST.

_II~~~2 Properties
It was found that, during each hourly time step, three time
sub-steps are adequate to detenni_ne the temperature of the encased
water, and three steps to detenni ne the evaporative 1ayer tempera-
ture. Whenever _the top i nsul ati on covers the roof pond assembly,
the additional steps taken -to determine the temperature of the eva-,
porative 1ayer are unnecessary. The detailed cal cul at ion procedure
is presented in Appendix III.

III. SIMULATION AND DISCUSSION OF RESULTS
The model was used to analyze the heating and cooling perfor-
mance of the roof pond in four distinct climates: Phoenix, Arizona;
Sacramento, California; Atlanta, .Georgia; and Washington, D.C. In
addition, sensi.tivity studies were performed to examine the influ-
ence on system performance of various engineering design parameters
for both the heating and cooling modes of operation. For purposes
of cornpari son, a standard set of system parameters is defined as a
reference for both heating and cooling and is used throughout this
study: these standard parameters are given in Appendix IV. The
room temperature is assumed to be constant for each simulation.
The choice of the most effective strategy for insulation con-
trol, the results of the parametric studies, and the roof pond per-
formance in various climates are discussed in the following sec-
tions.
heat flow from outside into the system .. for the heating (cooling)
mode is chosen. Given this position for the top insulation, the
system performance is analyzed ·for each of the two possible posi-
tions . for .'the bo~to"l. i n?ul ati on; the . position which results in
higher heat flow into (out of) the room for the heating (cooling):· f,..
mode is chosen. Table 2 shows the openning and closing times for
the insulation panels in the four climates examined here assuming a
22°C room air temperature.

Annual simulations (12 days - 1 day per month) of roof pond
performance were carried out for the Phoenix climate with top insu-
lation thicknesses varying from 1 em to 7 em. For all of these stu-
dies, the control strategy resulted in the bottom insulation being
open for the entire year. The results are shown in Figure 5, where
the net daily heat gain or loss by the room is plotted as a function
of insulation thickness fo·r January and August. It can be seen that
increasing the thickness of the top insulation improved the perfor-
mance of roof pond during both the heating and.cooling periods. In
this climate, the performance improvement becomes less significant
for thicknesses above 3 em. The effect of top insulation thickness
on hourly heat gains or losses by the room is demonstrated in Figs.
6 and 7.

The net daily gain or 1oss of heat by the room is one measure
of the effectiveness of the passive .solar system. However, signifi- ..
cant daily variations of hea·t flow in or out of the room .may be
accompanied by uncomfortable variations in room temperatures. Fig-
ures 9 and 10 show the heat flow in or out of the room as a function
of time of day for different pond depths. As the pond thickness is
• increased the daily range of variation of heat flux into the room is
decreased. Therefore, although Fig. 8 suggests that the total daily
cooling effect in Phoenix remains almost unchanged with pond depth
variations, Fig •. io clearly shows that a deeper pond may provide
more stable comfort conditions. Any conclusions concerning the com-
fort conditions should, however:, include the thermal mass of the
entire buiding. The daily 'Variation of pond 'llater temperature for
vari.ous pond depths is presented in Figs. 11 and 12.

CALCULATION PROCEDURE
The heat transfer from the bottom side of the top insulating
panel is based on the temperature of the plastic calculated dur-
ing the previous time step and on an overall heat transfer coef-
ficient between the plastic and the outer surface of the top
insulation. The overall heat transfer coefficient between the
plastic and outer surface of the top insulation is simultane-
ously c~lculated in this step.
{2) Based on the temperatures of the plastic and the encased water
determined during the previous time step, the heat transfer
coefficient between plastic and water is determined next.
Using this result the overall heat transfer coefficient between
the outer surface of the top insulation and water is calculated
from which the heat flow into the water from above is deter-
mined.
(1) The solar energy (if any) absorbed by plastic, pond water, and
steel is calculated.
(2) The temperature of the plastic membrane is calculated by per-
forming an energy balance for this element and using an itera-
tive solution technique. The temperature of the water obtained
in the previous time step is utilized in the energy balance.
The heat transfer coefficient between the plastic and the water
and hence the heat flow rate into water from above are simul-
taneously calculated in this step.
(3} In the case of solar radiation, the steel temperature is calcu-
lated based on the water temperature obatained from the previ-
ous time step. If no solar radiation is present, the tempera-
. ture of the steel from the previous time step is assumed.
(4) The heat flow into the water from below is calculated from the
steel temperature obtained in step (3).
(5) Same as step (4) of Case 1.
(6) The steel temperature, heat flow into water from below, plastic
membrane temperature, heat flow into water from above are
recalculated and steps (5) and (6) are repreated.

Case 4. Top Insulation Closed, With an. Evaporative Layer
(1} The temperature of the outer surface of· top i nsul ati on is cal-
culated in a manner which is similar to step (1} of Case 1. In
this case, however,- the heat transfer from the bottom side to
. the outer i nsul ati on surface is based upon the previous tem-
perature of the evaporative 1ayer rather than on the tempera- · ,.
ture of the plastic. An overall heat transfer coefficie·nt
between the evaporative layer surface and outer surface of the
top insulation is detennined. The heat flow from the top side
of the top insulation into the evaporative layer is simultane-
ously calculated in this step.

(2) Based on the temperatures from the previous time step, the heat
flow rates into the water and evaporative layer from the plas-
tic and that into the water from the steel are calculated.
(3),(4) -Same as steps (4) and (5) of Case 1.
(5) The evaporative layer temperature is calculated by performing a
heat balance on the water in the layer.
(6) The steel temperature, the plastic temperature, and heat flow
rates into the evaporative layer and pond water from both above
and below are recalculated.
(7) Steps (3) to (6) are repeated five more times.
In all of the four cases described above, the heat flow into or
out of the room is calculated whenever the steel temperature is
evaluated. This is done by calculating an overall heat transfer
coefficient between the steel and the room, considering the presence
or absence of the bottom insulation.
