Zlín FCK Technology
Honzák, Jiří ; Kudla, David (referee) ; Štěpán, Marek (advisor)
Temperature is an integral part of every space, yet in today's world of technological solutions, few people realize how important role it plays in various aspects of architecture and the social ties of the people within it. This master thesis deals with the design of a universal parametric system of community porch houses with an emphasis on the use of the spatial character of temperature in the interior, and subsequently applies this system to a specific building design in Malenovice near Zlín.
Thermal comfort of passengers at public transport stops
Junga, Petr ; Počinková, Marcela (referee) ; Rubinová, Olga (advisor)
This diploma thesis focuses on the evaluation of the thermal comfort of passengers at public transport stops, in the shelters of public transport, which are an integral part of urban technical equipment. This topic is gaining in importance especially with regard to climate change and related with increasing frequency of extreme weather events. First part of the diploma thesis is the theoretical part, dealing with public transport shelters from various theoretical points of view. The practical part of the diploma theses deals with experimental measurements of selected physical quantities in the interior and exterior of eleven public transport shelters in the city of Brno, during the six months of 2020 (cold and warm periods). The facts found by experimental measurements for individual shelters are compared and evaluated, with the final selection of the optimal model of the technical solution of the shelter.

Čech, Josef ; Mohelníková, Jitka (referee) ; Gašparik,, Jozef (referee) ; MBA, Pavel Slováček, (referee) ; Hrazdil, Václav (advisor)
Dissertation focuses on the verification of construction family houses made of concrete shell block with internal thermal insulation system. The construction technology is transferred to the Czech Republic from France. The work focuses on building envelope. The suitability of implementation is assessed on the basis of verification selected thermal technical requirements placed on building envelope. Requirements are specified by legislation in force in the ČR. The verification was performed by using software simulations and measurements on realized buildings. Critical areas of construction technology were identified on the basis software simulations and measurements on site. It was suggested solution, in which critical areas comply the thermal technical requirements. The building envelope was checked also using the thermography imaging on site. Continuous measurement of interior temperature was used to evaluate thermal comfort in the room. In the completed buildings was tested airtightness of the building envelope, which revealed other critical areas of the building envelope. Critical areas are necessary to solve with sufficient care. The economic cost of implementing each variants of exterior walls made of concrete shell block with internal thermal insulation were compared with the economic costs of implementing external walls made of burnt clay hollow blocks and made of burnt clay hollow blocks with external thermal insulation system ETICS. Subsequently, the economic return was calculated for individual variants of external walls made of concrete shell blocks with internal thermal insulation. From the environmental viewpoint was made comparison of production greenhouse gas CO2 and SO2 (cause acid rains) during the life cycle of the individual variations of exterior walls made of concrete shell blocks with system of internal thermal insulation, exterior walls made of burnt clay hollow blocks and burnt clay hollow blocks with external thermal insulation syst
Determination of heat transfer coefficients from the surface of the thermal manikin
Fojtlín, Miloš ; Tuhovčák, Ján (referee) ; Fišer, Jan (advisor)
This thesis deals with an experimental determination of heat transfer coefficients from the surface of the thermal manikin. The main focus of the work lies on separating radiative and convective heat fluxes from the surface of the thermal manikin. Both nude and clothed, standing and seated postures were investigated respectively. The tests were conducted in a constant air temperature (cca 24°C) and a constant wind speed (cca 0,05 m.s-1) environment. The major part of the radiative heat flux was eliminated by a low emissivity coating applied to the surface of the nude thermal manikin, and in the case of clothed manikin by a low emissivity two-piece dress. Favorable results were achieved only in the case of the nude manikin measurements. The measurements were performed across 34 zones that logically represent parts of a human body. Experimental work confirms theoretical expectations in the means of a heat transfer. In addition, the results of this work were compared to results of a similar experimental work. The outcomes of this thesis provide essential information in order to create detailed computational models of a thermal environment. Such models require anatomically specific, separate values of convective and radiative heat transfer coefficients.
Drivers clothing thermal resistance database for iHVAC system
Hrubanová, Kristýna ; Pokorný, Jan (referee) ; Fišer, Jan (advisor)
This diploma thesis is focused on measurement of thermal properties of clothes by thermal manikin and on application of results for prediction of thermal comfort in system iHVAC. First part of thesis is dedicated to research with relation to this topic and to definitions of main computational equations necessary for experimental measurement. The choise of method for measurement based on available standards is an important part of this thesis. The main focus of thesis lies on measuring 5 combinations of clothes at different calibration temperatures and same temperature of manikin surface. Then data are examined and also the analysis of uncertaities and repeatability is maked. According to assupmtion , the independence of value of heat transfer coefficient to ambient temperature is comfirmed and calculated heat resistance of every single clothes is compared to existing wardrobe for system iHVAC. The outcome of this thesis is specificied and completed virtual wardrobe which serves to prediction of thermal comfort in car.
Heating of apartment buildings
Diatel, Jakub ; Horká, Lucie (referee) ; Počinková, Marcela (advisor)
The topic of this diploma thesis is heating of apartment buildings, where an attention was focused on thermal comfort in heated rooms. The first theoretical part brings results of CFD simulations which compare radiators with floor heating. The second part consits of practical application o the given building. There are two options in this project - heating by radiators or floor heating. The third part describes two experiments - measurement of indoor environment in two rooms and measurement of gas consumption in apartment buildings with different heating concepts. In the last part the mean radiant temperature is simulated. There are compared different kind of heating, which have impact to distribution of mean radiant temperature in the room. The personal software was created for deeper understanding of mean radiant temperature.
Coupling of the Models of Human Physiology and Thermal Comfort
Pokorný, Jan ; Masaryk, Michal (referee) ; Kratochvíl, Zdeněk (referee) ; Jícha, Miroslav (advisor)
The thesis deals with car cabin environment and thermal comfort inside. A car cabin heat load model was developed in Dymola/Modelica to investigate influence of ambient environmental parameters. The model was validated on the data set of eight test cases measured in a climatic chamber and in a real traffic. The main objective of the thesis was to develop a human thermal comfort model suitable for non-homogenous environments and for a car cabin environment especially. The Coupled model of human physiology and thermal comfort was developed in Dymola/Modelica. The model allows predicting an overall human thermal comfort from local boundary conditions representing ambient and personal factors. The model was validated by 16 test cases taken from experiments in literature. Moreover three test cases were created in Theseus-FE to consider an asymmetrical heat load from Sun rays inside a car cabin. Prediction of the Coupled model was compared with Fiala model and experimental data. The Coupled model predicted mean skin temperature for moderate activities in neutral and warm environment well. In cold environment a predicted core temperature was very affected by ambient temperature and during high activity exercises, the predicted mean skin temperature was too high.
