The integration of environmental
controls in the design of a building must be
understood by the architect. An understanding of climatic elements, site factors,
the indoor environment and the users/occupants' comfort are essential factors
that influence the design of a building. Architects are not required
to be mechanical or electrical engineers, however, the basic principles of environmental
controls must be understood by the architect so they can control the outcomes
of the design and be a team leader in the making of architectures.
The course work during
this quarter will emphasize the control systems for thermal environment, and
the result of the class will enable the student to:
1. Have an understanding
in both the design issues related to thermal comfort conditions and the environmental
requirements in building for human occupancy.
2. Have an understanding
of the mechanical systems and equipments selected to satisfy thermal requirements.
3. Have an understanding
of building energy standards and regulations.
4. Have an awareness
of passive alternate systems and their applications.
5. Have an awareness
of the built-environemnt to be sustainable in the nature.
6. Have an awareness of space requirements for the system and equipment selected.
7. Be knowledgeable with environmental control terminology and the design implications
in order to consult with the engineers.
The course will be involved
with eight general categories of environmental controls.
1. Energy Overview and Site
Sources.
2. Human comfort and health
requirements.
3. Thermodynamic principles.
4. Thermal dynamics of buildings.
5. Heating and cooling loads
calculation.
6. Title 24 and energy standards.
7. Passive solar heating
and cooling strategies.
8. Sustainability and regenerative
systems.
9. HVAC systems.
The course will be conducted on both lectures and seminars/labs, which will involve theory, practical applications, calculations, and appropriate hands-on experiments . The lecture schedule notes topics for lecture and reading assignments. The reading assignments are to be completed prior to the lecture date noted.
