Air leakage test was carried out according to ASTM E779-03, Standard Test Method for Determining Air Leakage Rate by Fan Pressurization to meet the requirements of the LEED-NC v2.2(EQp2).

The calculation system for vertical ventilation with wind chimney on the roof driven by wind and buoyancy is presented and the necessary data is measured.

In predicting flow rate of a building ventilated by wind, the orifice equation is usually used. This conventional method cannot work for the building provided with large openings.

In naturally ventilated environments, indoor temperatures are directly related to the air circulation and conditions of the built environment.

In contrast to mechanical ventilation, natural ventilation's performance is usually impacted by uncertain factors, including wind fluctuations, outside air temperature variations, and occupants' be

In a simple single-zone building with two openings under an opposing wind, a macroscopic theoretical analysis of smoke flow direction and smoke mass flow rate is carried out.

This paper reviews the application of CFD for designing and parametric studies of wind-induced natural ventilation.

There is a growing desire to reduce peak temperatures within non-domestic buildings by accessing the thermal mass of separating floors.
