Abstract

The present paper describes a field measurement to investigate the summer microclimate in the semi-enclosed space under an actual membrane structure. The microclimate was analyzed, and thermal comfort was evaluated using the measurement data of vertical air temperature and velocity distributions, surface temperature distribution, etc. Analysis results show that solar transmission through the membrane structure had a greatest impact on the thermal environment in the living space under the membrane structure. The SET* in the living space was 2-3°C higher than air temperature from the early morning to the late afternoon on a clear sky day.
