jailcd2020073: Research on Strategies of Teaching Buildings in Xi'an Based on Indoor Therma Comfort Analysis

Abstract

The indoor environment is one of the most important environments for modern people. Therma environment and indoor air quality in offices affect health, comfort and performance of occupants.[1-3] This paper is to continuously track and test the indoor thermal environment and window opening behavior of the selected teaching building, by means of a Thermal Comfort Vote Experiment conducted among 50 students (included 25 males and 25 females) in the University of Eurasia in School of Human Settlement and Civil Engineering Building 2-6 floors, Xi'an. We divide students into the same position on different floors of the school (0.5m away from the window) at the morning, middle, and evening time points for thermal comfort voting records. Our results reveal that the students in the winter school building are satisfied with the indoor temperature (the voting value is -3 to -1) and the air variable (the voting value is between 1 and 2). Thermal comfort and window opening behavior affect each other, Therefore, when the thermal. comfort balance of the human body is broken in winter, people will choose different positions to improve thermal comfort.
