Analysis on the Relationship between Typical House Mode and Heating Energy Consumption in Cold Rural Areas of Eastern China

In cold rural areas of Eastern China, heating energy consumption was increased year by year, affected by some factors such as building materials, different courtyard layouts and residential constructions. Based on field measurements and multiple perspectives analysis of typical houses, the heat of cold air infiltration in one house could be reduced by 18.3 %, while the courtyard design was adapted to local climatic conditions. Heating energy consumption could be reduced by 15% for reasonable energy utilization, and which could be reduced by 50% for rational design of building layout and correct selection of materials for building envelope.
