Increasing the window-to-wall ratio significantly improves design flexibility and daylight performance.
A minimum window-to-wall ratio of 14.9% is required for a 0.9 m overhang to optimize thermal comfort.
EnergyPlus simulations evaluate various classroom configurations, focusing on enhancing natural ventilation and comfort.
Guidelines achieved include 80% Useful Daylight Illuminance and maintaining thermal comfort for 90% of occupied time.
