Improvement Of Indoor Thermal Environment In Renovated Huizhou Architecture

Huizhou architecture can provide a relative comfortable indoor experience in summer, but failing to achieve the same effect in winter. This paper tested the thermal comfort in Xingfu Hall of Wufu Club, a renovated Huizhou architecture project, revealing that the hall was stiflingly hot in summer, due to slow wind speed and poor vetilation. Then, the indoor thermal environment of Wufu Club was simulated on the software PHOENICS. The simulation shows that the ventilation effect could be improved by increasing the size of wind outlet (the patio opening) and the absolute difference between the surface wind pressure at the new opening and the wind pressure of the existing openings.
