English abstract:
Vernacular architecture as developed in the region of mountainous Greece under numerous, long-term modifications and adjustments is believed to embody several design strategies that contribute to the construction of energy efficient buildings. The example of the stone made houses is claimed to integrate empirical techniques that are able to confront the Mediterranean climatic data and provide comfortable internal conditions. The research presented focused on the stone mansions in the region of Pelion in Greece and produced a systematic analysis and simulation of their indoor thermal conditions under different ventilation scenarios applied in energy analysis and thermal load simulation software.
