Abstract This essay uses a physical modeling technique from mechanical engineering, the filling box, as a speculative architectural design tool. In the filling box, dyed salt water is injected into acrylic models submerged within a tank of fresh water, simulating the introduction of cold air into a warm environment or, when mirrored, the introduction of warm air into a cooler environment. The models make complex and beautiful convective thermodynamic processes visible, revealing insights about environmental processes taking place within and around buildings. Mirror images of model studies are accompanied by writing that draws on the science of thermodynamics to explore the atmospheric milieu of architecture, aligning an increasingly ubiquitous concept in architectural design discourse – thermal variability – with a design technique that foregrounds this concern.

物化对流

摘要 本文使用机械工程中的物理建模技术填充盒作为一种推测性的建筑设计工具。在填充盒中,染色的盐水被注入浸没在淡水罐中的亚克力模型中,模拟冷空气进入温暖的环境,或者在镜像时将暖空气引入凉爽的环境。这些模型使复杂而美丽的对流热力学过程变得可见,揭示了关于建筑物内部和周围发生的环境过程的见解。模型研究的镜像伴随着利用热力学科学探索建筑大气环境的文字,
