Study and Analysis on the Thermal Environment Test in Guanzhong Farm Residential in Winter

Abstract

Rural residences in Guanzhong area have suffered from poor indoor thermal environment and backward energy-saving methods for a long time in winter. In order to study the local thermal environment, improve residents’s thermal comfort in winter and reduce building energy consumption. The research team conducted a typical winter solstice day Conduct thermal environment test and field survey on typical residential buildings in Guanzhong area, and quantify the test data to get the results: 1. Local solar energy resources have a certain potential. 2. The indoor thermal environment is severely humid and cold so that thermal comfort is low. 3. The first floor of residential buildings can basically meet thermal comfort requirements. According to the results of energy consumption calculations, Guanzhong’s farm buildings consume too much energy. In response to the national energy conservation and emission reduction policy, some improvement measures are needed to improve the atmospheric environment. Taking into account the local climate adaptability, residents’ living habits and economic conditions, measures are proposed to reduce the area of the north window by a certain percentage, install additional sunshine rooms, and transform the second floor south to a balcony.
