Stack driven ventilative cooling for schools in mild climates: analysis of two case studies | 2015 | English | 10 pp
Night time cooling by ventilation or night sky radiation combined with in-room radiant cooling panels including Phase Change Materials | 2015 | English | 11 pp
Night sky radiative cooling technology using PhotoVoltaic/Thermal panels (PVT) and night time ventilation have been studied both by means of simulations and experiments to evaluate their potential and to validate the created simulation model used
The new initiatives and regulations towards nearly zero energy buildings forces designers to exploit the cooling potential of the climate to reduce the overheating occurrence and to improve thermal comfort indoors.
There is an expanding literature on the value of sustainability features in buildings (European Commission, 2013; World GBC, 2013; World GBC, 2014).
The role of ventilation in achieving acceptable indoor air quality is examined in the light of emerging challenges, alternative mitigation strategies and performance indices within the spatial and time matrix of the indoor environment.
Ventilation projects within the international energy agency: objectives, approaches and expected results | 2015 | English
This key note presents the objectives, approaches and expected results of the on-going annexes relevant for ventilation and air infiltration in buildings and illustrate the importance of and expectations to an increased cross-annex coordination an
