	Sourcebook Passive Solar Design
		Passive solar design refers to the use of the sun's energy for the heating and cooling of living spaces.
		Passive design is practiced throughout the world and has been shown to produce buildings with low energy costs, reduced maintenance, and superior comfort.
		A thermal chimney is a common design element in passive solar designs.

	Passive solar - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Passive solar is a term referring to those technologies that can be employed to convert natural sunlight into usable heat, to cause air-movement for ventilation or cooling, or to store the heat for future use, without the use of electrical or mechanical equipment.
		Passive solar technologies used domestically include the use of direct solar gain, solar space heating, those solar hot water systems based on the thermosiphon, thermal mass, the Trombe wall, solar cookers, the solar chimney, and earth sheltering.
		For these reasons, passive solar technologies (together with energy conservation measures) should be considered before active solar technologies.

	CalendarHome.com - Solar time - Calendar Encyclopedia
		Solar time is based on the idea that when the sun reaches its highest point in the sky, it is noon.
		Apparent solar time is based on the apparent solar day, which is the interval between two successive returns of the Sun to the local meridian.
		Mean solar time is artificial clock time adjusted via observations of the diurnal rotation of the fixed stars to agree with average apparent solar time.

	HVAC - Passive Solar Design for the Home - AC Unit .com
		This is called passive solar design or climatic design because, unlike active solar heating systems, it doesn't involve the use of mechanical and electrical devices, such as pumps, fans or electrical controls to move the solar heat.
		After solar radiation is transmitted through the glass and absorbed by the home, it is radiated again from the interior surfaces as infrared radiation.
		Solar heat is absorbed by the wall's dark-colored outside surface and stored in the wall's mass, where it radiates into the living space.

	Green Buildings Info - Passive Solar Design
		Concrete, brick, tile and other masonry materials are the most common choices for thermal mass in a passive solar home, these materials absorb and release heat slowly and are easily and inexpensively integrated into the house design.
		Passive solar design works by utilizing overhangs to shade a house during the heat of the summer and allow sunlight to penetrate the interior of the house during the winter.
		Designers of solar homes use insulation levels that are higher than those found in typical construction and energy efficiency appliances and lighting.
