Abstract: Optimal shading provides effective shielding of solar radiation to prevent overheating, while ensuring the use of solar gains. To achieve this goal with structural shading elements, a common method is to find the ideal parameters using time-consuming thermal simulations to evaluate possible shader dimensions. In this paper a new method was developed that requires a single ideal thermal reference simulation. Following the simulation the TRNSYS beam solar preprocessing and simulation processes were used to generate the optimal structural shading parameters instead of just evaluating them. The function of the developed method was demonstrated through the successful application to a single zone model.
