Abstract

Paraphrasing ASHRAE standard 55; comfort is that condition of mind that expresses satisfaction with the interior environment. The principle purpose of a building design is to provide conditions for human comfort through the optimization of solar control, daylight performance, and subsequent supplemental heating, ventilating, airconditioning and lighting systems. Medical facilities are a building sector where there is an inherent concern for occupant well-being and comfort while still mindful of operational energy efficiency. Façade Configurations, the most important interface to the external environment, play a significant role in setting occupant comfort levels within the space. This paper therefore focuses primarily on solar control aspects of façade system alternatives and their impact. Proposed is a design process that utilizes comfort simulation alongside operational energy saving calculations to validate and refine, integrated architectural, envelope interior planning and perimeter zone supplemental mechanical and lighting systems from a holistic perspective. The paper illustrates the use of this process on four recent healthcare projects in California.
