Optimization of Atrium Thermal Environment in Summer Based on DeST Platform.

The indoor environment simulation and optimization of atrium buildings are a research hotspot in the field of architectural technology. This article presents linear atrium buildings as the research object, introduces DeST simulation technology into thermal environment analysis, and studies the dynamic conditions and typical day time, the atrium itself structure, the structure of the rooms around the atrium and the thermal environment of the atrium space and its adjacent rooms. In the research process, two modes of natural ventilation and air conditioning were considered, and the optimal atrium building structure parameters under different outdoor weather conditions were obtained. The research results show that in natural ventilation mode, the thermal comfort temperature is the best when the atrium's aspect ratio is 1.71; when using the air-conditioning mode, the air conditioning load is the smallest when the atrium's aspect ratio is 1.55. In summer, the thermal environment of the linear A-shaped atrium is better than the H-shaped atrium. When the atrium window hole position is about 0.9 ∼ 1.5 m, the thermal environment is comfortable and energy saving. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
