A combination of numerical simulations and field measurements is employed to assess the impact of different wall configurations on heating energy demands and comfort. Configurations with thermal mass placed on the interior side of walls exhibit better thermal performance, reducing temperature fluctuations and enhancing thermal comfort. The study also explores the influence of climate severities, changing the window-to-wall ratio and building orientation on energy savings and comfort for various wall configurations. Wall B (thermal mass inside and insulation outside) reduces HED by 4% and HDD by 3% across different locations. Wall B reduced HED by 9.8% and HDD by 1.4% for a south facing building, and reduced HED by 3.2% and HDD by 2.2% for 10% WWR.\u00a0<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-b14a0bd elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"b14a0bd\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-db38548\" data-id=\"db38548\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-22990f7 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"22990f7\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h4 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Keywords<\/h4>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-d819036 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"d819036\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><em>Thermal Performance, Thermal Mass, Insulation, Residential Buildings, Cold Climate.<\/em><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-e02f560 elementor-widget elementor-widget-button\" data-id=\"e02f560\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"button.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-button-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t<a class=\"elementor-button elementor-button-link elementor-size-md\" href=\"https:\/\/energiseindia.in\/2023\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Effect-of-Thermal-Mass-and-Insulation-Position-in-Walls-on-the.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-content-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-text\">Download Article<\/span>\n\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-79318b2 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"79318b2\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-47f8ee1\" data-id=\"47f8ee1\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-c26dea0 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"c26dea0\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h4 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">References<\/h4>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-534e48d elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"534e48d\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<ol>\n \t<li>India energy outlook report (IEA), &#8220;India Energy Outlook,&#8221; World Energy Outlook Spec.
