了解居住者与建筑构件和系统的相互作用，以及室内环境如何因居住者的行为而受到影响，对于更高效地操作和维护现有建筑，以及设计更舒适、更节能的新建筑非常有益。本文的目的是提供这方面的见解。为此，居住者的行为和能量流动正在加拿大渥太华的一座教学楼中进行监测。对东、西、南立面的23个周边办公室和东南部的两个角落办公室进行了研究。 居住者的存在和室内环境条件，包括室内温度和相对湿度，通过与楼宇自动化系统（BAS）集成的内置传感器进行收集。室外延时摄像头正在记录可操作的窗户和遮阳位置。光照状态和室内照度由安装在每个办公室的独立数据记录器测量。本文介绍了这项对居住者的存在和行为、室内环境条件以及不同办公室的能源需求的监测活动的结果。 引文:ASHRAE Transactions，第123卷，pt。2

Knowledge of occupants' interactions with building components and systems and how indoor environments are influenced in response to occupant behaviors is highly beneficial for operating and maintaining existing buildings more efficiently and for designing new buildings to be more comfortable and energy conscious. The objective of this paper is to provide insights in this regard.Tothis end, occupant behaviors and energy flows are being monitored in an academic building in Ottawa, ON, Canada. A sample of 23 perimeter offices on the east, west, and south facades and two corner offices on the southeast were studied. Occupants' presence and indoor environmental conditions, including indoor temperature and relative humidity, are being collected with built-in sensors integrated with the building automation system (BAS). Outdoor time-lapse cameras are recording operable window and shade positions. Light state and indoor illuminance are being measured by standalone data loggers installed in each office. This paper presents results of this monitoring campaign on occupants' presence and behaviors, indoor environmental conditions, and energy demand in various offices.
