How facades impact thermal comfort :
A new methodology for assessment
Prof. Dr.-Ing. Sabine Hoffmann
TU Kaiserslautern
The Future Envelope 12 final event 20-21 May 2019, Bolzano
•  Future envelopes need to
focus on energy reduction
and users’ comfort
•  Daylight and solar radiation
are main influences on visual
and thermal comfort
•  Trades-offs are often
necessary
•  Solar and light management
is becoming more and more
important
•  Detailed assessment
methods are necessary
Introduction

The Future Envelope 12 final event 20-21 May 2019, Bolzano
What is new?
•  Variable occupant positions in the space, complex room geometries
•  Detailed calculation of solar radiation on body parts
–  Radiance raytracing calculations
–  BSDF for complex fenestration systems (shading systems)
•  Transient calculation of the body’s thermo-physiological reaction
–  PhySCo: Physiology model
•  Transient calculation of thermal sensation and thermal comfort
–  PhySCo: Sensation and Comfort model

Conclusion
•  Solar radiation is a main influence on thermal comfort
-> PMV is not sufficient to assess thermal comfort
-> Importance of (dynamic) shading systems
•  Radiance can be used for detailed solar load calculations on
the human body
•  Detailed calculation methods are available (PhySCo)
-> Human-centered assessment method
The Future Envelope 12 final event 20-21 May 2019, Bolzano
•  PhySCo in transient building simulation to control and
optimize dynamic shading systems
•  Validation of results through human subject tests in
the Living Lab smart office space
