窗户是建筑物使用者控制室内环境的主要手段之一。本研究利用实地调查的结果，制定了一种方法，模拟办公楼，包括开窗行为对舒适度和能源使用的影响。本文主要讨论：（1）什么是一般的开窗行为？(2)我们如何构建一个“自适应算法”来预测窗户是否打开？(3)如何在模拟中使用该算法，以量化开窗对舒适度和能源使用的影响？我们发现：（1）窗户打开的比例取决于室内和室外条件，（2）逻辑回归分析可用于制定自适应算法以预测窗户打开的可能性，（3）该算法在嵌入模拟软件中时提供了使用更常见的模拟方法不可用的见解，并允许量化建筑物设计对窗户打开行为的影响，居住者舒适度和建筑物能源使用。
Windows are one of the major means by which building occupants control the indoor environment. This research uses results from field surveys to formulate a method for simulation of office buildings to include the effects of window opening behaviour on comfort and energy use. The paper focuses on: (1) what is general window opening behaviour? (2) how can we frame an “adaptive algorithm” to predict whether windows are open? (3) how can the algorithm be used within a simulation to allow the effects of window opening on comfort and energy use to be quantified? We have found that: (1) the proportion of windows open depends on indoor and outdoor conditions, (2) logistic regression analysis can be used to formulate an adaptive algorithm to predict the likelihood that windows are open, (3) the algorithm when embedded in simulation software provides insights not available using more usual simulation methods and allows the quantification of the effect of building design on window opening behaviour, occupant comfort and building energy use.
