Abstract

Korean Traditional house made of natural resources with low level thermal properties shows high performance in temperature and humidify control comportable for human. The present investigation is to examine the thermal behaviors of air flows inside the traditional house. The transient numerical experiments are performed along with the different external conditions. Thermal properties of building units have been obtained by the parallel measurements and utilized in the numerical works. Consequently, the details of flows and temperature of air in the houses illustrate the thermal design of the traditional Korean house satisfy the requirements of human living.
