Abstract

Museums environment is complicated and defined by indoor air quality, thermal and lighting comfort. Artifacts deterioration is factored by extreme conditions of thermal exposure or excessive lighting. With high control required for exposed old monuments and visitor comfort, museums energy systems reach extreme levels. In this paper, we aim to find the gap in museums high energy loads and reach solutions through architectural design. The paper studies comparison results for different techniques in fifty recent case studies to identify the specific factors that matter most to museum buildings. These factors are implemented simultaneously on one base model in three climatic states by multi-objective optimization. The best option will showcase each climate optimum conditions. The paper introduces optimum architectural procedures optimizing sDA and ASE to minimum 70% and maximum 10% respectively while decreasing thermal load. The results help architects and policy makers achieve daylighting and energy optimization in museums through architecture.
