A Study on Indoor Thermal Environment of Rural Residence in South Liaoning Province

Targeting at rural residence in south Liaoning province, a continuous test on indoor temperature and atmospheric temperature is made and a questionnaire survey about residents’ thermal sense is conducted. Combined with local residents’ mode of life, living habit, psychological demand, economic situation and so on, heating design temperature of south Liaoning province is given. It shows that the temperature demand of residents that live in traditional house is lower, which of master bedroom is 12 to 14 centigrade. To newly building, the heating temperature demands of different rooms are different. The heating design temperature of frequently used room ranges from 12 to 14centigrade, and occasionally used room ranges from 10 to 14 centigrade. However the heating design temperature of room which is hardly used is from 9 to 13 centigrade. This paper will offer theoretical basis for new rural construction in south Liaoning province.
