Study on Outdoor Thermal Comfort and Recreation Behavior of Taiwan Farm Park in Central Taiwan

Abstract:

According to the economic development and the requirement of leisure activities, the popularity of leisure and recreation become very popular in Taiwan. Thus, How to attract tourists to visit these leisure places becomes as a major issue. The questionnaire and outdoor and semi-outdoor comfort detecting devices are applied to analyze these real factors. The results of questionnaire display that “choose a comfortable time to recreation” and “choose the comfort of shade near the local open space” are most important factors for tourists. Then, filed test results show that actual influence factors of tourist activities are outdoor and semi-outdoor thermal comfort, such as wind velocity and surface temperature of construction materials. Thus, the suitable construction material is imitation wood for creating a comfort place.
