The Design and Thermal Comfort Test for North Shannxi Green Cave Dwelling

Abstract:

To overcome the traditional cave dwelling lacks, we have designed a green cave dwelling area with a safe structure, improved infrastructure, fluent ventilation, good light in northern Shaanxi, which inherited simple ecology in design for traditional cave, integrated modern residential building design style, and increased necessary sanitation. By compared a traditional cave, the results show that the indoor temperature 9°C between the peaks and valleys of Northern Green cave dwelling when the outside temperature difference is 24°C within the test time, and seasonal temperature wave delay time is about 12d. The thermal comfort same as the traditional cave dwellings’.
