| Outline and Purpose of the Course | Lectures will be given on basic environmental elements such as solar and thermal radiation, heat and moisture transfer and air quality and ventilation. Fundamental characteristics, analytical and calculation methods are introduced. In addition, evaluation methods will be discussed in physiological and psychological aspects. In summary, the participants will acquire the knowledge and skill to evaluate the building performance on environmental aspects and to reflect them onto architectural design. | ||
| Course Goals |
The aim of this lecture is to let the participants to acquire the basic concepts and skills to evaluate buildings with respect to environmental aspects and to reflect onto architectural design. B1: scientific ability to solve problems, B4: understanding environmental aspect of architecture, C1: ability to realize actual buildings |

| Schedule and Contents |
Architecture and climate (3 weeks) The role of architectural environmental engineering. Fluctuation characteristics of meteorological conditions (temperature, wind, solar radiation), regional characteristics, and the relationship between the external environment around the building and indoor environment. Thermal environment (2 weeks) Human body heat generation and dissipation mechanism, body temperature regulation mechanism, thermal comfort and sensory body temperature index and thermal environmental design. Heat transfer in buildings (3 weeks) Relation between steady-state heat conduction and thermal characteristics and heat transfer coefficient of wall. Heat supply and room temperature, indoor humidity and dew condensation Air quality and ventilation (4 weeks) The causes of air pollution in rooms, necessary ventilation rates, mechanism of ventilation, buoyancy ventilation, wind-aided ventilation, ventilation network. Radiation heat transfer (2 weeks) The principles of thermal radiation, radiative properties of materials, radiant heat transfer, application to building design. End-term examination and evaluation of achievements (1 week) Checking degree of understanding. |
