- W2341188613 abstract "Atria, particularly those enclosed by glass, have become popular features of manybuildings in recent years. Due to the large amount of glazing, they are characterised bycomplex thermal processes and by levels of interaction with the ambient climate moreintense than other types of buildings. Both the thermal processes and the local climate,place additional complexity for the designer of an atrium building.So far, research concerning atrium buildings and glazed spaces has focused ontheir energy performance and their potential contribution in minimizing cooling and heatingloads of the adjacent buildings. The current research additionally concentrates on the needto achieve acceptable indoor thermal conditions, basic condition for environmental controlof a space. However, the knowledge concerning occupant expectations and preferences inatrium buildings is limited, especially regarding warm to hot climates i. e. the Mediterraneanclimate.The research comprises the study of factors influencing temperature in glazedatrium spaces in Mediterranean climate and the conditions that result in relation tooccupant comfort. The investigation involved:- literature review on atrium architectural forms and thermal processes;- observations of atrium buildings in the specific climatic context;- thorough analysis of the climate and climatic responsive design strategies;- occupant comfort surveys;- in situ physical measurements of a case study building in Greece during the peakseasons (winter and summer);empirical validation of the software.The results from the occupant comfort survey established the adaptability of theusers to a wider range of thermal conditions in atrium buildings. The in situ physicalmeasurements provided useful information on the building's performance. These resultsand the background research constituted a valuable input for the parametric study fromwhich recommendations of design criteria for optimal atrium design in the Mediterraneanclimate were derived.The main conclusion of the research is that understanding the climatic attributes ofa specific location, and the occupants' expectations, together with the selection ofappropriate design parameters, leads to the design of a comfortable and efficientenvironment. The results of the study are applicable to designers at the conceptual stageas well as to cases of retrofitting." @default.
