THERMAL DYNAMICS?

Two buildings of identical components, one as compact and smooth as possible, and one as elongated and convoluted as possible.

1) diagrams of zoning and thermal dynamic understanding of the complex is of importance
2) tectonics to deploy thermal qualities are given as the hinge rotational system

MAJOR MOTIVATORS:
  • SHAPE 
    • GEOMETRIES: I/V-PENTOMINO with hinged rotational system - good for inversion, should start with zoning and inversion
  • CONFIGURATION
    • in response to HEAT TRANSFER:
      • CONVECTION
      • CONDUCTION
      • RADIATION
CONCEPTS:

To me, thermal dynamics refers to a comprehensive heat exchanging system.
The major ways of heat exchange:
  • CONVECTION: dispersal and constriction; pump and web; resembles the circulatory system
  • CONDUCTION: heat cascading system, branching, ecosystem
  • RADIANCE: heat reflection and absorption, atmosphere
To further coin the definition of thermal dynamics in an analytical way, inspired by the blood circulatory system in animals, my concept is to establish a thermal circulatory system where the heat exchange between interior and exterior occurs at the key/core organizational components whereas interior heat exchange happens at the extremities in a webbed/expanded surface area fashion, and the two are connected by a circulatory ventilation veins/thermal tubes.

Ideally, the inversion of the shape would also subvert the interiority and exteriority of the the thermal configuration, so by performing the hinged rotation act I would be able to subvert the roles of the extremities and the core, resulting in a differently configured vein system that is more appropriate for the context.

The next step would be to come up with a diagram of such inversion system and they set it into the tectonic system.
