Open Space Design Strategies Based on Thermal Comfort Analysis
نویسنده
چکیده
ABSRTACT: Design strategies for open spaces need detailed information about the thermal comfort conditions. The actual use of open spaces is analysed depending on the microclimatic conditions and activities. With measurements, observations and calculations with a thermal comfort model the results could be used for a open place design. The results are demonstrated at two open spaces in Kassel /Germany. The behaviour of the people in open spaces is correlated to the thermal comfort conditions. Based on that a methodology for thermal comfort mapping is introduced, which gives ideas for an open space design. Evaluation criteria is a thermal index and its spatial variability. For calculation the models townsscope and enviment were used.

Comparing the Microclimatic Role of Horizontal and Vertical Vegetation to Improving the Thermal Comfort of Outdoor Spaces between Buildings: A Case study (Faculty of Agriculture, I.K.I University), Qazvin.
Vegetation moderates a microclimate by casting shadows, increasing light reflection, evaporation and perspiration; and correcting wind patterns. The present study aims to investigate the microclimatic role of vegetated surfaces and bodies in improving thermal comfort in outdoor spaces between buildings. The main research question is which of the green system modes, that is, horizontal vegetatio...

Having a mild and humid climate, Gilan province is closer to the comfort zone than other regions of Iran. In addition, the use of radiation, wind, precipitation and humidity components in the spatial organization of native houses has led to the formation of a semi-open space next to the closed space. In general, the placement of spaces in this climate is such that there is no clear border betwe...
