Author(s) : BSRIA, JACKMAN P. J.

Type of monograph: Book

Summary

This document presents the result of a study supported by the Department of the Environment, Transport and the Regions (DETR), under the Partners in Technology scheme. It provides guidelines on the factors required to achieve successful natural ventilation in offices in summer by the use of openable windows. A combination of physical and computer modelling was used to examine the limiting conditions for natural ventilation through one external facade to be effective in providing a comfortable and healthy indoor environment on a still, warm summer day. The first section of this document presents the design guidelines. Subsequent sections summarise the research and findings from which the guidelines were compiled.
