摘要
The paper discusses issues of thermal comfort standards, including the ASHRAE comfort zone, techniques of graphical climate data analysis, as well as the uses of building bioclimatic charts in the formulation of building design guidelines, especially for hot climates. The problematics of applying the Olgyay bioclimatic charts and the ASHRAE comfort standards for unconditioned buildings, especially in developing hot countries, are discussed. Revised building bioclimatic charts are described for the first time in this paper. The boundaries of applicability of various building design strategies and passive cooling systems in different climates are discussed. These strategies are based on the expected indoor temperatures achievable with the different strategies and include daytime "comfort" ventilation, the utilization of the structural mass for thermal storage in conjunction with nocturnal ventilation, and direct and indirect evaporative cooling.
