Abstract

This chapter delves into the critical issue of thermal comfort in temporary housing solutions, emphasizing the need for adequate indoor hygrothermal conditions to ensure health and livability. Through a structured approach involving literature review, experimental analyses, and numerical simulations, the chapter assesses and optimizes indoor comfort conditions. Key topics include the architectural requirements influencing thermal comfort, the evaluation of indoor environmental quality and moisture-related issues, and the proposal of practical passive strategies for improvement. The findings highlight the effectiveness of natural ventilation, reflective surfaces, and shading systems, as well as the importance of moisture-buffering internal layers. The chapter concludes with actionable insights into the effectiveness of passive interventions, providing valuable guidance for practitioners, policymakers, and humanitarian agencies involved in emergency housing.
