Abstract
Port passenger station buildings (PPSD) are an important part of transportation buildings in China, which is characterized by large human flow, long operating time, high load of equipment and lighting. The characteristics and functions of PPSD lead to the high energy consumption. However, the energy consumption analysis of PPSD was deficient. In this paper, the characteristics of energy consumption of port passenger stations in cold regions and hot summer and warm winter regions in China were analyzed. Based on eQUEST, the building models of port passenger stations are established. The influencing factors of the building energy consumption were analyzed through orthogonal experiment with SPSS. Results show that the factors such as summer indoor design temperature, heat source form, air conditioning form, window to wall ratio and lighting control mode are the key factors affecting the energy consumption of port passenger station.

Summary
As an important part of public buildings, the traffic architecture has the characteristics of large space span, complex function, large passenger flow and long working time.[1,2,3] A large number of literatures at home and abroad have studied the energy consumption and energy saving potential of transportation hub buildings. Song et al [11] investigated the energy consumption of 36 railway stations in north China, and found that the average annual energy consumption per unit area of the high, medium and low grade railway stations was 423 kWh/m2, 222 kwh/m2 and 101 kwh/m2. Balaras et al [13] investigated the energy consumption of 29 airport terminal buildings in three climatic zones in Greece, and obtained that the annual energy consumption per unit area of each climatic zone was 376.0kWh/(m2·a), 244.6kWh/(m2·a) and 168.3kWh/(m2·a). There are few studies to analyze energy consumption of port passenger station. Eight port stations were investigated and tested to obtain the basic information and energy consumption of the port stations. Eight port stations were investigated and tested to obtain the basic information and energy consumption of the port stations. the building models of the port passenger stations are established to analyze the influence factors of the port passenger station through orthogonal experiment
