项目摘要
Thermal simulation tools are an essential element in the design of low energy / low carbon buildings. However, they have made little impact on the building design community, despite legislation and industrial and technological development requiring more performance oriented and energy efficient buildings. Although this is a multi-faceted challenge, the research methods used to investigate and address it tend to lack the necessary richness and interdisciplinarity. Current outputs from simulation tools tend to be unrelated to concepts that are meaningful to the building designer and incompatible with his/her constructivist / experimental / 'learning by doing' way of approaching problem-solving. Developers are rarely provided with adequate information about how simulation results can be used to inform design decisions. Consequently, responses to the problem tend to be interpretations of what the simulation community assumes the building designer needs. These responses tend to be based on research methods that are ineffective in matching needs with their appropriate solutions. Research methods such as interviews, structured on-line surveys, reports of specific case studies and observations from working in collaboration with building designers simply describe the problem without showing how it can be solved. Even though much has been achieved in improving input interfaces and facilitating modelling in the early design stages (connecting SketchUp with EnergyPlus via OpenStudio, the set up of AutoDesk Project Vasari, etc.), there is still much to be done about the content and format of building thermal simulation results for them to be effectively used in design decision making. The displays of time-series graphs and tables with temperatures and loads connected to surfaces and volumes are meaningless for building designers to use. Designers need results that effectively connect these temperatures and loads with the building elements they are manipulating. This research proposes to focus on the gap that exists between the output information from simulation tools and what is actually needed for building designers to undertake informed design decisions when designing energy-efficient low carbon buildings - the gap that prevents simulation tools from being better integrated throughout the building design process. Hence, it aims to generate procedures to produce post-processed information and data representation systems that are meaningful to building designers. These procedures and outputs will be illustrated by a series of tested and validated examples developed through interdisciplinary collaboration. As suggested, proper collaboration between building design researchers and building simulation software researchers is essential to acknowledge and brings together the different ways these two disciplines interpret and manipulate building thermal physics. Moreover, the approach creates opportunities for a different research method to be explored. The method consists in inviting the building designer to propose what he/she thinks would be useful building physics information to support his/her design decisions when presented with a design task specifically tailored to facilitate the extraction of this information. Propositions include parameters, indices, diagrammatic and multimodal ways of representing results as well as possibilities of undertaking design changes. This method, not used before in this research area, aims to ensure that simulation tools will be consonant with the way of thinking and modus operandi of the designer, in ways that will mitigate current resistance to incorporating simulation results in design decision making.
热模拟工具是低能耗/低碳建筑设计的基本要素。然而,它们对建筑设计界的影响很小,尽管立法和工业和技术发展要求更多的以性能为导向和节能建筑。虽然这是一个多方面的挑战,但用于调查和解决它的研究方法往往缺乏必要的丰富性和跨学科性。模拟工具的当前输出往往与对建筑设计师有意义的概念无关,也与他/她的建构主义/实验主义/“边做边学”解决问题的方式不相容。很少向开发人员提供关于如何使用模拟结果来指导设计决策的充分信息。因此,对问题的回应往往是对模拟社区假设的建筑设计师需求的解释。这些反应往往以研究方法为基础,无法将需求与适当的解决办法相匹配。诸如访谈、结构化在线调查、具体案例研究报告以及与建筑设计师合作的观察等研究方法只是描述了问题,而没有展示如何解决问题。尽管在改进输入界面和促进早期设计阶段的建模方面已经取得了很大的成就(通过OpenStudio将SketchUp与EnergyPlus连接起来,建立AutoDesk Project Vasari等),但为了有效地用于设计决策,在建筑热模拟结果的内容和格式方面仍有很多工作要做。温度和负荷与表面和体积相关的时间序列图表和表格的显示对建筑设计师来说毫无意义。设计师需要将这些温度和负荷与他们正在操作的建筑元素有效地联系起来的结果。本研究建议将重点放在模拟工具的输出信息与建筑设计师在设计节能低碳建筑时进行明智设计决策所需的实际信息之间存在的差距上——这种差距阻碍了模拟工具在整个建筑设计过程中更好地集成。因此,它旨在生成对建筑设计师有意义的后处理信息和数据表示系统的程序。这些程序和产出将通过跨学科合作开发的一系列经过测试和验证的例子加以说明。如上所述,建筑设计研究人员和建筑模拟软件研究人员之间的适当合作对于认识和汇集这两个学科解释和操纵建筑热物理的不同方式至关重要。此外,这种方法为探索不同的研究方法创造了机会。该方法包括邀请建筑设计师提出他/她认为有用的建筑物理信息,以支持他/她的设计决策,当设计任务特别定制时,以促进这些信息的提取。命题包括参数、指标、表示结果的图解和多模态方式,以及进行设计变更的可能性。该方法在本研究领域从未使用过,旨在确保仿真工具与设计师的思维方式和操作方式相一致,从而减轻当前对将仿真结果纳入设计决策的阻力。
