Abstract

Low technology, low cost, high thermal efficiency and other characteristics make cold rural inhabitants reluctant to give up the Kang heating method. The unique Kang technology in some cases has been research hotspots, however how to improve the Kang technology and adapt to the contemporary life is meaningful. Through the on-site investigation and questionnaire survey, it is found that the modern spatial feature is the key constraint of the Kang technology improvement. This paper developed an inheritance pattern of Kang integrated both spatial adaptation and heating effect into account. The numerical simulation was used to prove the heated kang compatible with the modern rural lifestyle, where two conditions were examined:1)the temperature of the main room was increased by 6% and the temperature fluctuation was reduced, 2)the temperature of the secondary room was rised by 14%, achieving better thermal efficiency.
