摘      要：Cooling is one of the major concerns in building tropical *** problem is exacerbated by the heat gain of the roof,which constitutes 70%of the total heat *** passive cooling technique is one of the innovative practices and technologies that provide buildings with comfortable conditions through natural *** and radiative processes are the methods used to decrease heat gain by facilitating the elimination of excess heat in a building s interior to maintain a comfortable *** that the potential of these techniques vary from region to region,their application in the tropics should be *** these approaches in detail allows us to rethink how to effectively adapt these techniques to overcome the build-up of heat in modern tropical houses in Southeast *** study reviews the physical characteristics of these approaches to guide architects and building *** indicate a great reduction in operational ***,the significant differences in the performance of colour and material properties should be considered,given that the selected approach strongly affects the required thermal conditions of a building.
