Indoor Climate of Residential Interiors and Asymmetry of Radiation

Abstract:

The paper is oriented on the indoor climate of residential interiors. Questionnaire survey in new residential building has showed problems with securing quality of indoor climate. In smaller residential interiors with large glazed surface was this problem bigger. Cause of problems was formation of local thermal discomfort. One of the most serious area of local thermal discomfort is asymmetry of radiation. To clarify asymmetry of radiation, there were carried out experimental measurements in a special microclimatic laboratory for convective heating. In this paper, there is presented the scientific analysis and the outputs from measurements. In the conclusion of this paper are introduced principals for designing the residential interiors without local thermal discomfort.
