The Study Of Thermal Environment In Rural Residential Of Meizhou And Energy-Saving Design Strategies

Under the background of rapid development of economy and the integration of urbanand rural areas, the construction of rural houses has entered a peak period. The area of newlybuilt rural houses from2008to2010is respectively8.34,10.21and9.63hundred millionsquare meters. By the end of2010, the area of civil construction in rural areas has reached theamount of23billion square meters, which accounts for fifty percent of the total constructionarea in our country. What is more, the total energy consumption of rural houses is very largeevery year, with the rapid development of the quality of life in rural areas and the transition ofthe means of energy consumption.Although the area of single rural residential is relatively small, and the function as wellas the shape is relatively simple, while the total area and construction is really huge.Furthermore, the population living in rural residential is very large. Through comprehensiveanalysis on the thermal environment and the energy consumption of rural houses, we aim toform a series of scientific design guidelines, which not only can effectively improve thequality of indoor thermal environment, but also can reduce the energy consumption in acertain extent. What is more, it has great significance for the construction of low carbonsociety. The main research work of this paper can be illustrated as follows:(1) Through the interviews to the local people, and through the investigation of the currentsituation of rural housing construction and the structure of different portions as well as theindoor thermal environment, the indoor thermal environment in the local residential has beenevaluated comprehensively.(2) In order to understand the problems and shortcomings in rural residential and theirimpacts on the thermal environment in the building, the thermal environment of typicalhouses has been measured with professional equipment.(3)After finishing the work of measuring the data, the data will be analyzed to evaluate thethermal environment of rural housing and its influencing factors in this chapter.(4) The effects of building orientation, window shading, roof structure and exterior wallstructure on thermal environment have been studied in this chapter. Moreover, the effects ofthese factors on energy consumption have been studied to propose strategies to optimize thedesign of rural residential based on the research.
