Wind-driven natural ventilation systems.

Author(s) : BSRIA, PARKER J., TEEKARAM A.

Type of monograph: Book, Guide/Handbook

Summary

This BSRIA guide provides guidance on the design and application of wind-driven natural ventilation systems. Topics covered are: how wind-driven ventilation works (operating principles; system components; application); performance factors (design; acoustics; weather protection; relevant standards; mixed-mode systems); siting and installation (new build and retrofit projects; temperature sensing); meteorological data; automatic controls; test method; designing and sizing methodology (stages of the design methodology; design conditions; ventilation requirements; system pressure losses; validation checks); worked examples; commissioning; CFD modelling. The publication also includes eight case studies demonstrating the use of wind-driven natural ventilation systems.
