Transsolar Concept For The Nbia
ABSTRACT
Thermal and visual comfort for the occupants of a
room are not defined by air temperature only, but also
radiation with its three components solar radiation,
daylight and heat radiation has to be taken into account
(among other factors such as humidity, air speed and
occupant activity and clothing levels). In hot climates the
optimization of room comfort is a challenging task due
to the high solar radiation over the whole year.
In intelligent buildings new material developments
are applied optimizing the building envelope in an
integral building design process. New solutions for
weather, noise and heat protection are developed, where
building envelope and installed mechanical equipment
work together creating optimal comfort at minimum
energy consumption.
This approach was used in the design of the New
Bangkok International Airport, NBIA to develop an
optimized building concept in a design team comprising
the architects, structural and mechanical engineers,
HVAC, acoustic and climate engineers.
