Study on Wintry Air Temperature and Humidity of Traditional Houses in Three Regions of Nepal

摘要

1. The indoor air temperature is highest in low altitude andvice versa in high altitude.2. The relative humidity (RHi) becomes 22% and 63% forcold and temperate regions, assuming the indoor airtemperature being 15°C; their difference (ΔRHi) is 41%.Similarly, (RHi) become 51% and 67% for temperateand sub-tropical regions, assuming the indoor airtemperature being 20°C; the difference (ΔRHi) is 16%.3. The indoor water vapor concentration was low in cold,intermediate in temperate and high in sub-tropical regions.The difference in the wintry average indoor water vaporconcentration, (ΔC_(wv)) is 5.5 g/m~3 between temperate andcold regions, 3.2 g/m~3 between sub-tropical and temperateregions and 8.7 g/m~3 between sub-tropical and cold regions.
