Abstract
The paper presents results of simplified small-scale modelling of three buildings with different roof colour - covering. The aim of the measurement is to compare the influence of different roof covering (material, colour) onto the indoor temperature. The models are very simplified, used only to compare results among themselves, especially heat gains via conduction, and not between models and the real buildings under real conditions.
Keywords: solar gains, colour
