A passive ventilation system using solar chimneys was designed to provide ventilation to several classrooms in an addition to an elementary school in…
Validations of implicit large eddy simulation were carried about two wind tunnel studies, which are flow and dispersion measurements around the building.…
Application of CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) toward performance-based building design has a long tradition. Increasingly, CFD tools are also being…
This study prepares a list of articles on the CFD analyses of room air flow in the architecture field in Japan, and compiles information related to CFD…
Natural ventilation is considered an energy efficient measure that can utilize outdoor cool air to achieve free cooling but needs not consume any fan energy…
Diffuse ceiling ventilation uses perforations in the suspended ceiling to deliver air into the occupied zone. Due to the complex geometry of the diffuser,…
The project is a design for a mixed mode system using either cross flow or stack effect natural ventilation with ceiling mounted fan coil units, in the 42,…
This study introduces a hybrid ventilation (HBV) system in a pig house combining natural and partial pit mechanical ventilation (PPMV). The PPMV system is…
This study investigates the effect of modeling the slatted floor as porous media on prediction of ammonia emissions and airflow patterns. Two approaches to…
Mixed mode ventilation is an effective way to reduce energy consumption as well as improve thermal comfort. Presented here is an easy to implement method…
Building form is one of the most critical factors influencing natural ventilation potential in an urban context, and thus has a significant impact on…
Minimum levels of attic ventilation have been required by residential building codes in the United States for years, but the precise attic temperature…
The benefits and limitations of time-dependent and steady state computational fluid dynamics simulations when evaluating natural ventilation were explored…
In the frame of a multi-year EU project, the set of European Standards from 2006/7 to support the European Energy Performance of Buildings Directive (EPBD)…
Domestic Hot Water (DHW) production can account for a quarter of the energy consumed in UK dwellings and this proportion is likely to increase as the energy…
This paper aims at assessing the energy savings potential of cold climate Air Source Integrated Heat Pumps (AS-IHP)s for Canadian households. The AS-IHP…
In order to address the lack of reliable methods that can analyze the overall effects of PDEC tower with a spray system, analytical models that predict…
Energy models are used in the residential sector to determine the baseline energy consumption and to predict the future energy demand. They represent a…
Buildings are the main consumers of electricity across the world. In the electricity system, it is critical to have a realistic forecast of buildings’…
