Comparative Study of the Indoor Thermal Environment of Three Rural Residences in Southwest Region of Shandong Province

Abstract:

In the southwest region of Shandong province, villagers spontaneously adopt various ways to resist the cold climate in winter. In this paper, first we selected three typical rural residences in the region as case buildings. The three residences respectively use different heating ways for better indoor thermal environment, honeycomb briquette, Kang and furnable-heating. Then, we measured and compared the heat and moisture parameters of indoor and outdoor environment of the three residences. Finally, with the results of measurement and comparison, we proposed some methods to improve indoor thermal environment of rural residences, and economical ways of heating to enhance quality of villagers life, and provide technical support for new rural construction.
