Study Regarding Temperature Differences between a Traditional Roof and Green Roof

Abstract

In the last years a lot of studies were focus on green roofs in different regions and zone on the continent. The study location is in Germany, at the University of Applied Sciences Neubrandenburg and lasted 2 weeks in summer of 2014. To determine temperature were used 6 devices Data Logger LOG. The temperature differences between a green roof and a traditional roof were measured and statistically assured; therefore, it was determined a difference around 3o C between the traditional roof and the green roof. The results of the experiment demonstrate that the temperature recording in summer is lower on the green roof than on the traditional roof in temperate zone. In the current paper are also recording temperature differences between the building height levels.
