Cross-ventilation is a mechanism using the pressure difference between the outdoor environment and indoor space to provide an energy-saving method for…
In this work, the cooling performance of night ventilation systems and different earth heat exchangetechnologies were experimentally analysed in three…
Conventional methods of multi-zone airflow analysis ignore mechanical energy conservation in forming the system equations governing building airflows. As a…
This paper describes a concept of probability-based design and its application in the field of ventilation. The path of probability-based design is followed…
The cooling effect of indoor air movement from circulator fans has been discounted in many strategies for increased energy efficiency. Standards such as…
Natural ventilation using open windows is an energy efficient and effective method of providing a good indoor air climate in schools. However, open windows…
To evaluate wind pressure distribution on a building by using CFD (computational fluid dynamics), it has been general practice to use k-e models. However,…
This paper reports the findings of a field study and telephone survey into the impact of window replacement on air infiltration and moisture problems in UK…
The assessment of building thermal comfort quality in the Mediterranean context necessitates an accurate knowledge of air temperature and velocity fields…
Measurements of the unsteady flow in a ventilation stack of a school have been made at model scale in an environmental wind tunnel. The results confirm the…
A wind catcher/tower natural ventilation system was installed in a seminar room in the building of theSchool of Construction Management and Engineering, the…
Wind approaching a building provided with openings on the windward and leeward sides has a choice, either it flows through the openings or flows around and…
