Abstract:

Thermal comfort indicates the sensation of humans towards the surrounding environment. This research work proposes a novel method for assessing thermal comfort indices of the Beijing Historical Town Blocks. Motivation. Maintaining a proper thermal comfort is essential for healthy living and promoting the use of low energy strategies; therefore, there is an intense need for research, analysis, and assessment of thermal indices for indoor environments.

Abstract:

While rapid urbanization promotes social and economic development, it exacerbates human outdoor thermal comfort, which increases the risks to human health. This paper uses four thermal comfort indices and multiple satellite observations to explore the urbanization effect on summer heat stress in Guangdong from 1979–2018, a coastal province of China. Two types of thermal comfort index are used here, namely the direct thermal comfort index (Heat Index, HI; Temperature–Humidity Index, THI; Discomfort Index, DI) and the physiological thermal comfort index (Universal Thermal Climate Index, UTCI).

Abstract:

Thermal factors not only affect the thermal comfort sensation of occupants, but also affect their arousal level, productivity, and health. Therefore, it is necessary to control thermal factors appropriately. In this study, we aim to design a thermal environment that improves both the arousal level and thermal comfort of the occupants. To this end, we investigated the relationships between the physiological indices, subjective evaluation values, and task performance under several conditions of changes in the indoor ambient temperature. In particular, we asked subjects to perform a mathematical

Abstract:

AbstractThis study aimed to explore the microclimate and outdoor thermal comfort characteristics of pedestrian spaces in mountain cities under humid and cold conditions. It focused on rainy and cloudy winter days in a typical mountain city (Chongqing), employing a combination of onsite thermal environment measurements and survey questionnaires. The research analyzed the Thermal Sensation Votes (TSV), thermal comfort evaluation indices (Universal Thermal Climate Index—UTCI, Physiological Equivalent Temperature—PET), and thermal environment parameters at representative sites. The findings revealed that firstly, outdoor thermal comfort and perception on cloudy winter days was minimally influenced by the microclimate. In contrast, on rainy winter days, it was significantly impacted by black globe temperature and wind speed. Secondly, the correlation between PET and Mean Thermal Sensation Vote (MTSV) was found to be higher than that between UTCI and MTSV, indicating that PET might be more aligned with the local climate and pedestrian activities. Lastly, the study determined the neutral PET range for different weather conditions in the area and compared it with existing research to identify discrepancies. This paper offers a reference for the neutral thermal comfort range in pedestrian spaces in regions with hot summers and cold winters under humid and cold winter climates, providing theoretical support for urban planning and design, with an emphasis on the results being presented in the past tense to reflect completed experiments.

Abstract:

AbstractBuilding shading systems play an important role in controlling solar heat gains, which can mitigate the impact of climate change on indoor environment. Effectively reducing cooling demand in summer and heating demand in winter requests further development of seasonally regulated shading systems. The main problem is to find a way that consumes less energy while reaching better comfort, which demonstrates potential for conducting an extensive search to parametrize configuration of shading. This paper aims to investigate the effects of building shading systems on energy and thermal performance in different seasonal conditions through a parametric design method, using Baoshan station in Shanghai, China as a case study to establish a baseline model and test different shading components’ direction, depth, spacing, and tilt angle. The method explores a large solution space at the beginning of design, establishing a variety of approaches that can inform the architectural design team. The results showed that a proper passive shading system can reduce energy consumption by about 13% while thermal comfort meets ASHRAE 55 standards. This finding indicates the possibility of improving the indoor thermal comfort while lessening building energy consumption.

In this context, passive cooling methods should be investigated. Thus, to broaden the investigation of these systems, the aim of this work is to calibrate a computational model, developed in t

The experiment was carried out at three different supply airflows (high, medium and low) and three set-point temperatures (23, 24 and 25°C). The results showed that there is a considerable variation in the air velocity field in the room as well as in the PMV values for three d
