Modeling & Field Test of Dwelling with Courtyard Summer Thermal Environment
Chinese historical experience of constructing buildings merits attention. As the main and typical kind of Chinese traditional residential building, the dwelling with courtyard is “cool in summer”. However, less research on the thermal performance of dwelling with courtyard has been available in public literature. In this paper, based on the systematic analysis on various related elements, the physical and mathematical model of the air temperature distribution is set up. It is proved by the fieldwork measurement and computer simulation that the shielding effect of the aisle, side house and the long-narrow structure are the main reasons for the low temperature in courtyard.
