Green Architectural Enhancement Method for Daylighting Performance of Kindergarten Living Units
The study aims to create a healthy and green indoor natural light environment in the kindergarten living units by enhancing the daylighting performance of the unit.The key of the study lies in the quantitative expression of the"architectural enhancement method"and assessment for green buildings.Six green architectural enhancement methods were applied to the kindergarten living units under different working conditions,and the spacing method had the lowest and the splitting method had the highest daylighting performance index.It is concluded that the sunshine spacing of living units is not a key factor affecting daylighting performance.The daylighting performance will be enhanced by increasing the glazing-to-floor area ratio of living units,but the window position and spatial combination pattern of living units are also closely related to the enhancement of daylighting performance.The splitting method performs best in enhancing the daylighting performance of living units and is most worthy of promotion in design practice.
