Abstract
By designing an office with window shutters and setting different window sizes, the indoor wind and thermal environments were investigated at different heights. Opening windows improved the thermal conditions in the office, especially in high temperature rooms. Despite generation of high ventilation rates at many locations, the ventilation rates were good within the main areas. It appeared critical to supply air through opening of the windows. A novel simulation method was explored. Meanwhile, an appropriate numerical simulation scheme was chosen to evaluate the effects of various office structures on thermal comfort, which can thus provide an important reference for the office building design.
