Research and Publications
Handbook on Energy Conscious Buildings - J.K. Nayak and J.A. Prajapati
Prepared as a joint research project between IIT Bombay and the Solar Energy Centre of India, this handbook by J.K. Nayak and J.A. Prajapati is a practical guide to energy-conscious architecture.
It helps architects design high-performance, low-energy buildings through:
Passive Design Principles: Strategies tailored to India's diverse climatic conditions.
Technology Integration: Guidelines for blending renewable energy systems seamlessly into building designs.
Practical Resources: Technical illustrations, real-world case studies, and reference data to streamline the design process.
Manual on Solar Passive Architecture - J.K. Nayak, R.Hazra, J.A. Prajapati
Developed through a joint research project between IIT Bombay and the Solar Energy Centre of India, this manual by J.K. Nayak, R. Hazra, and J.A. Prajapati serves as a concise guide to sustainable building.
It functions as a practical design primer for architects and students through:
Essential Information: Core passive solar data delivered in a highly concise, accessible format.
Seamless Integration: Practical insights designed to be built directly into the architectural design process.
Targeted Learning: Structural guidance tailored specifically for both practicing professionals and academic study.
Chapter on Solar Passive Architecture in Advances in Solar Energy - Vol 2, ed. Garg and Singh
This volume is concerned with the applications of solar energy and contains the following six chapters; solar heating of buildings (Active Systems), solar energy for industrial process heat, solar furnaces, solar thermomechanical power, solar refrigeration and air conditioning, passive solar house heating.
Numerous articles and papers on sustainable architectural practices.
Testimonials
"I wanted to thank you for this wonderful journey with you for proposing the first building in IIT Indore with a novel concept of "Solar Passive Architecture ''.
I can't tell you how much we appreciate the novelty of the concept, freshness and lightness in building design with overall low running and maintenance cost."
Executive Engineer (Electrical),IIT Indore,Simrol, Indore,Madhya Pradesh
"The findings and recommendations provided by you for the Energy Efficient Design of Centra Lecture Theatre (CLT) considerably benefitted IITDh in obtaining the Environmental Clearance, initiating construction activities and improve design performance of CLT from energy considerations and formed the basis document for submission to GRIHA Council for provisional GRIHA (LD) 4 Star."
Dean (Infrastructure, Planning and Support) & Visiting Professor, IIT Dharwad
"On behalf of the organisers of Solar Decathlon India, I would like to thank you for your constant support, input, advice, and efforts during the 2021-2022 Challenge.
You provided encouragement mentorship and guidance that was valued by the participants. Your enthusiasm and positive spirit were also valued by our Core team and our Supervisory group."
Director, Solar Decathlon India
