Optimisation of the thermal and ventilation performance of naturally ventilated building facades.

Author(s) : HOLMES M. J., COUSINS F.

Summary

On the basis of a proposed design for a building in Germany, discusses how the facade (solar flue) can be used to provide the driving force for building ventilation. Examines the design constraints, and the application to the analysis of the performance of the building of a zonal air flow model driven by convective heat gains.
