Research on Indoor Thermal Environment of Residential Building in Yubei

A village of Yubei, the typical area of north of Henan Province was selected. A field study was conducted in the traditional adobe house and newly built brick house, indoor and outdoor temperature, relative humidity and other indoor thermal environment parameters were obtained in winter. The results indicated that the indoor thermal environment in new and old folk houses were all lower than the local residential building thermal environment standard. Test data show that open the north door and one font design is the main reason leading to the adobe building indoor thermal environment is poor, and brick house around the main room layout features of "disposition" design is the main reason to maintain its good indoor thermal environment. The results provided the basis for the improvement of indoor thermal environment and the design of new residential buildings in this area, which provided the basis for the energy saving and sustainable development of rural residential buildings.
