Author(s) : ARTI, NIST, EMMERICH S. J., CRUM J.

Type of monograph: Report

Summary

This report was prepared as an account of work sponsored by ARTI under its "HVAC&R Research for the 21st Century Program". The study found that while natural ventilation systems performed adequately in certain climate zones, hybrid ventilation systems improved the performance of the natural ventilation system in all climates. Extract from the table of contents: literature review (general and design; case study buildings; simulation studies; safety and other issues); simulation plan (hypotheses; evaluation criteria; simulation method; building parameters; HVAC systems; simulation periods and climates; climate analysis and sizing of natural ventilation system components); results (San Francisco, Los Angeles, Boston and Minneapolis, Miami).
