Abstract
Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) method is used to study the effect of solar radiation model on the thermal environment of passenger compartment. The thermal comfort of passenger compartment is evaluated by equivalent temperature and mean radiation temperature and the correctness of the simulation results is verified through passenger compartment cooling performance experiment. The results show that the solar radiation parameters have different effects on the thermal comfort of passenger compartment. Among them, the solar azimuth has no obvious effect on the thermal comfort of passenger compartment. The change of the solar altitude will cause different solar radiation and radiation intensity changes in various parts. Changes in radiation intensity have a great impact on thermal comfort.
