Comfort and energy performance analysis of a heritage residential building in Shanghai

Abstract: Along with its rapid growth in economy, the protection of heritage buildings has recently gained importance and awareness in China. This paper investigates the energy performance of a heritage building (Wang's House) in Shanghai, as well as the thermal comfort of the users, using dynamic thermal simulations. The analysis showed that heating accounts as the highest energy demand, followed by cooling and lighting. The resulting study will help the authors to identify various sustainable strategies to improve use… Show more

“…The rest and recreation model (Table 1) uses a combination of general lighting and layout accent lighting, with switches controlled from the head of the bed so as not to disturb other children in the ward. Down light wall lamps diffuse light on both sides, 4,000 K neutral white light produces a soft light [13], and at the same time to ensure that the illumination of the reading area, the eyes will not feel tired, the spirit will also be relaxed (Fig. 4).…”

“…The amount of incident solar radiation (insolation) admitted through the glazed surfaces in the façade may show severe thermal and visual discomfort issues, in order to avoid excessive solar gain and reduce energy consumption it is necessary to adopt suitable shading device design [11]. The building façade design also plays an important role in providing effective ventilation configuration and strategies, in order to provide efficient Indoor Air Quality (IQA), which usually expressed by the CO 2 concentration in the space and the air ventilation rate [12]. This study presents the evaluation of a typical existing social house design in Algerian hot and dry climate region, which represent the major part of the country, through a Diagnostic of Energy Performance (DEP) of the building, estimating the energy demand related to the thermal comfort, day-lighting and air quality, which mainly depends on the façade component design.…”
