形随流定

Fit Form to Flow

文章讨论了"会呼吸的建筑"未来发展的四要点。首先,此类建筑往往更细致地考虑到室内人群的温度感知。其次,气流多以热压驱动,通过一种新的渗透型空气缓冲空间的调节,在相对极端的气候环境里引入自然通风。除此之外,通过类似温度匹配这样的关键要素,使热力学第二定律成为日常的专业讨论用语。最后,构形理论往往能使这一切得以实现,帮助我们设计出一些新颖有趣的建筑形式,让空气的流动与建筑空间获得更好的结合。

This paper discusses four points about the future of ＇breathing buildings＇. First, they will have a richer rapport with the thermal sensoria of people indoors. Second, the air-flow will be powered mostly by buoyancy, and tempered by a new kind of porous buffer zone, enabling natural ventilation to be employed in otherwise challenging climate zones. On the back of this, the second law will become part of our everyday professional discourse, through key issues such as temperature matching. Lastly, Constructal Theory may show us how to actually make all of this work in practice, and enable us to design new and interesting forms, all sculpted to the flows that we must get better at orchestrating.
