A new integrated design tool for naturally ventilated buildings.
Author(s) : ROUSSEAU P. G., MATHEWS E. H.
Type of article: Article
Summary
Describes the development of a new model to predict natural ventilation flow rates in buildings. It takes account of the effect of both wind-induced pressures and pressures due to thermal forces. It can predict natural ventilation flow rates as well as the resulting indoor air temperatures. Illustrates its application in a case study which demonstrates its suitability for optimising passive building design.
