Natural ventilation is an important role to improve the residential building indoor thermal environment in summer. This paper use Energy Plus to simulate indoor thermal environment and use CFD to simulate indoor air flow for Xi’an residential building, analysis the influence that different ventilation mode for indoor thermal environment factors. Then with the simulated result of PMV-PPD value to estimate indoor thermal comfort. Proved night ventilation is necessary in residential building in Xi’an and effectiveness to improve indoor thermal comfort.

To compare the indoor thermal environment under different building envelope constructions, a Matlab-based tool was presented for building envelope performance simulation. An application study of two cases illustrates energy efficient buildings can provide more suitable indoor environment than non-energy efficient buildings in cold winter and hot summer. In conclusion, this paper provides a new and fast way for the prediction of indoor thermal environment.

By using a variety of energy-saving technologies, low-grade geothermal energy will be efficiently used for improving the indoor thermal environment with few high-grade electric energy in low enthalpy geothermal engineering. In order to be more targeted and precise, geothermal energy conservation engineering should be designed and controlled on the basis of characteristics and variation of indoor thermal environment. Taking the low enthalpy geothermal engineering in the Air Force Command Academy veteran cadre living area as an example, it generalizes the building and simulates the indoor thermal environment by DeST software. The results show that the thermal enironment of rooms which are on the different storeies and different orientations is different. it is be obvious regularity, the thermal enironment of rooms in the high storey and low storey is worse than the middle storey in winter, the thermal enironment of rooms in north is worse than in south, the thermal enironment of rooms in west is worse than in east, and the thermal enironment of rooms in the corner is worse than in the middle. All of these may be a guide to equipment selection, layout of pipe network and terminal equipment, and can provide a theoretical basis for energy conservation design and operations control.

In most emporiums with atrium the phenomena of vertical temperature nonuniformity are very severe, especially in winter. In this paper with an example of emporium with atrium the actual data are measured and by using the method of CFD simulation the indoor thermal environment of the atrium and surrounding area are simulated. The three-dimensional flow fields are studied, the temperature and velocity fields under different air flow organization modes are gained, the effect of the atrium to the whole building is discussed and the corresponding correction method to the indoor space loads, especially the space loads in the upper and lower stories are proposed. The results above will be good references for the design of the emporiums with atrium. The use of the correction method will help to obtain a comfortable and stable indoor thermal environment, and also will be good to the building energy conservation.
