Resumen

High-Andean dwellings in Peru, located between 3,000 and 5,000 meters above sea level, face critical thermal comfort conditions due to winter temperatures ranging from –3 °C to –20 °C and limited construction capacity to retain heat. Although there are studies on passive systems, there is no systematic comparison that evaluates the efficiency of these strategies, considering the region’s typical thermal and environmental conditions. This study addresses this gap by using the PRISMA methodology to identify and compare passive solar gain strategies aimed at improving thermal comfort, based on 15 investigations published between 2013 and 2024. The results show that semidirect strategies, such as Trombe walls and attached greenhouses, achieve the highest temperature increases, while direct gain and storage systems contribute to indoor thermal stability. Together, these systems establish a technical basis for the bioclimatic design of high Andean dwellings adapted to cold climates. © (2024), (). All Rights Reserved.
