I consider that different behaviors or lifestyles need different energy saving technologies. Is there a feasible description method for occupant behaviors of the indoor environment?
Dear Xu,
This is an interesting paper about and maybe will help:
Survey of occupant behaviour and control of indoor environment in Danish
dwellings by Rune Vinther Andersena et al.
http://taskair.com/knowledge/Survey%20of%20occupant%20behaviour%20and%20control%20of%20indoor%20environment%20in%20Danish.pdf
and this thesis by the same author:
OCCUPANT BEHAVIOUR WITH REGARD TO CONTROL OF THE
INDOOR ENVIRONMENT

You should look at the increasing number of articles on occupant behavior and climate control that have been published over the past 5 years or so in Building Research & Information, (BRI)
Dear Xu,
Regarding the "pollution" generated by people, you could have a look to the report ISO CR 1752:1998. There you can find energy, CO2 and vapor produced by humans depending on their phisical and metabolic activity.
This is an essential part of Adaptive Comfort Theory, and there has been significant work in this field by Brager, de Dear, Nicol, and Humphreys. And I've had a go at it too. I hope this is useful.
Dear Wang Xu,
you also might have a look at materials from IEA Annex 53 (Volume 2: http://www.iea-ebc.org/fileadmin/user_upload/images/Pictures/EBC_Annex_53_Appendix_Volume_2.pdf) and IEA Annex 66 work on Occupant Behviour explicitely.
We are also going to host a symposium on this topic in August in Karlsruhe this year (see: http://annex66.org/KarlsruheMeeting)
Best,
Marcel
