Field Study on Thermal Environment of Typical Rural Houses in Qin-Ling Mountain

Abstract:

With the urbanization process, rural houses in Qin-Ling Mountain area changes spontaneous, some of these changes may lead to improvement of thermal performances, while others may be worse and results more energy consumption. Besides, in Qin-Ling Mountain area, energy consumption of rural houses for thermal comfort is mainly in winter. For these reasons, based on the field study in Qin-mao village in north Qin-Ling Mountain, the thermal environment in winter of new rural houses are tested and analyzed in this research. The result shows a close relation between indoor thermal performance and the outside wall materials, as well as location of rooms. And then the influence was quantified in 1-3. On this basis, defect of new rural house design is discussed, and advice is put forward to inprove its indoor thermal environment.
