Abstract

Under the circumstances of backward production tools and technologies, varied and graceful local buildings are built by using the local materials with the wisdom of the working people. The article analyzed wood dwellings in Xishuangbanna in Yunnan Province as cases. Based on the field testing and analysis of the wood dwelling in Xishuangbanna , and more specifically, the indoor temperature of the dwellings with wood walls as well as the surface temperature of building envelope were tested and comparatively analyzed. The test results reveal that the maximum and the minimum of the indoor air temperature is 1.1 and 0.1 lower than one of the outdoor temperature, an amplitude of the indoor air temperature is 1.0 lower than one of the outdoor temperature. The test results show the current situations and features of indoor temperature changes of these dwellings of wood materials, which may provide a basis for improving the thermal environment of Dai nationality dwellings.
