Thermal mass is most effective in a climate with

  • A.high humidity throughout the year
  • B.cloud cover for most of the year
  • C.a large difference between day and night temperature
  • D.a small difference between day and night temperature

Answer: C

Mass absorbs heat by day and gives it up to the cool night air, which is why traditional buildings in hot dry regions have thick walls. Where the nights are as warm as the days there is nothing to discharge the mass into.
