Building shape coefficient is an important factor in building energy saving design. In order to analyze the influence of shape coefficient to the energy consumption, a typical residential building is simulated by BECS software to analyze the changing regular patterns of the energy consumption for heating and air conditioning while the building shape coefficient is made different. The relationship between building height and shape coefficient, and the impact of the building plane layout on the energy consumption are also analyzed. The results show that the reduction of shape coefficient is benefit to enhance the effect of energy saving.
