A Study on Digital Governance of Historically Preserved Buildings Based on CFD and Thermal Imaging: The National Taiwan Museum of Fine Arts as an Example

Abstract. This study sets out to improve the indoor and outdoor air environments of Historically Preserved Buildings through digital management, achieving energy savings and emission reduction. Historically, environmental control in art museums relied on manual aids and airtight construction, leading to significant energy consumption and complete Monument isolation. However, advancements in artificial intelligence have enabled the digital management of healthy environments.
This study utilizes a literature review, case studies, and computational fluid dynamics (CFD) . a literature review was conducted to collect data on active and passive Monuments, healthy art museum environments, and digital governance of Monument and environmental control. The National Taiwan Museum of Fine Arts (NTMA), Museums of Historical Preservation, was selected as the primary research target, and data was collected through field surveys, aerial photography, and construction of a three-dimensional model. wind environment simulation and thermography analysis were conducted through PHOENICS and PIX4D, and a proposal was made.
This study yielded the following two conclusions about NTMFA:1. Direct isolation of the physical environment control and aesthetics-oriented external planting methods make it difficult to reduce the indoor temperature and improve the air quality. These methods are also very energy-consuming；2. The NTMFA employs four strategies to enhance indoor and outdoor spaces, passive and active design, area redrawing, digital management of active design area, digital management of passive and active mixed area, and improvement of passive area. These strategies prevent direct isolation between the Monument and the environment while optimizing the indoor and outdoor wind environments.
