Study on the impact of optimal design and dynamic control mode of building skin on climate adaptation

This study designed a simple residential unit model with dynamic climate adaptive building skins and developed five skin control modes to analyze their impact on building climate adaptability. The main purpose of this study is to design building skin schemes and control modes with better climate adaptability. The experimental results show that the illumination and humidity control effect of Illumination mode group is the best, and the temperature control performance is also relatively good. It is the scheme with the best overall control performance. Its comfortable illumination time ratio and comfortable humidity time ratio are 65.2% and 76.3%, respectively, which are significantly higher than other schemes. The absolute differences between the average room temperature, average room temperature, and target temperature median values in Illumination mode group were 25.7°C and 1.7°C, respectively, with minimal differences in temperature control effects compared to other experimental groups. The experimental results indicated that controlling the opening and closing angles of building louvers according to the illumination of solar radiation can maximize the dynamic climate adaptability of the building. The results of this study will provide some useful references for improving the climate adaptability of civil buildings.
