Tropical Regions Rehabilitation Hospital Building Energy Efficiency and Interior Environmental Design Research

Abstract:

Tropical Regional Rehabilitation Hospital Complex is the necessary infrastructure for the aging society, the environment should be designed to strike a balance between comfort and sustainability. The design focuses on the unity of the Rehabilitation Hospital both indoor environment and energy-saving effect. Comprehensive energy conservation measures, indoor sound and light environment and shading systems designed to improve comfort and rehabilitation efficiency of patients, as well as the rehabilitation hospital managers to achieve lower operating costs and sustainable management objectives.
