Performance evaluation of network airflow models for natural ventilation

摘要: The potential for natural ventilation in building design to reduce associated cooling and fan energy consumption makes it an area of great interest. However, its increased use is dependent on the availability accurate modeling tools predict impact a given design. Network airflow models have been developed airflows within buildings between indoor outdoor, which usually require user-supplied thermal conditions space. Because dependency space temperature naturally ventilated buildings, network need be incorporated into whole simulation models. This study reviews existing that may used investigates capability accuracy four prevalent simulate wide range scenarios, with varying combinations geometry driving forces. Comparison predictions measureme...
