Abstract

This paper reports the results of the field survey on the indoor thermal environment in low and middle income detached houses and an apartment house in Surabaya, Indonesia. The thermal condition in the houses and the thermal sensation of the residents are analyzed, and the three types of the houses are compared from a thermal point of view. The inferior room condition in low income houses, is due to the poor roof insulation and the lack of the ventilation. In middle income houses, although the residents think the room condition is warm or even hot, most people answer that is comfortable or neutral. The condition in the apartment house is slightly better than in the other houses during daytime. In all houses the night condition is evaluated worse than the day condition. It is necessary to reduce the room temperature at night using some kinds of ventilation. In the middle income houses, 70% of the interviewees answered that air-conditioning is necessary. Therefore the cooling energy is expected to increase in this region in the future.
