Abstract

The outside corridor of Dutch Colonial Building in Indonesia was made to make the temperature of the room more comfortable. Lawang Sewu Building in Semarang is one example of a building that has an outside corridor along the building and until now still use natural ventilation. This study focuses on finding out whether there is a difference on the thermal conditions of each room’s orientation, so after that we know the effect of orientation of the outdoor corridor to the temperature of the interior. In this study the experiment based on measurement using Heat Stress WBGT Meter for Wet Bulb Temperature, Dry Bulb Temperature, Relative Humidity, and KW0600653 Hot Wire Anemometer for the air movement. The data will be analysed using thermal standard theory to find out which point has the most comfortable thermal conditions.. At the end of this study will be found the effect of corridor’s orientation to thermal condition of the interior in Lawang Sewu Semarang.

Highlights

Introduction[1] In the tropical climate the biggest problem is the room temperature which can be high because the environmental temperature is high
The existence of the outside corridor at Lawang Sewu was have an influence on the thermal conditions of the room
It is seen from the thermal conditions that still survive at a comfortable point, though lawang sewu just rely on natural ventilation from the beginning until now

Summary

Introduction

[1] In the tropical climate the biggest problem is the room temperature which can be high because the environmental temperature is high Many buildings in this climate are designed not to use natural ventilation but use Air Conditioner for their daily activities. The differences include the presence of high ceilings, the existence of eaves, and the existence of outside corridors in buildings This happens because of the adaptation of Dutch Colonial’s building design to the climate of Indonesia, and this adaptation is expected to make the temperature of the room more comfortable. By choosing an effective corridor location, it will help us to make the room more thermally comfortable without air conditioner. The less use of air conditioning has an impact on carbon emissions that will be lower
