The Impact of Roof Pitch and Ceiling Insulation on Cooling Load of Naturally-Ventilated Attics
A 2D unsteady computational fluid dynamics (CFD) model is employed to simulate buoyancy-driven turbulent ventilation in attics with different pitch values and ceiling insulation levels under summer conditions. The impacts of roof pitch and ceiling insulation on the cooling load of gable-roof residential buildings are investigated based on the simulation of turbulent air flow and natural convect...
متن کاملNumerical simulation of buoyancy-driven turbulent ventilation in attic space under winter conditions
Attic design and construction have significant impacts on residential buildings’ energy performance. In order to understand how passive ventilation rates affect ridge-vent attic’s performance, a twodimensional steady-state finite volume model is employed to simulate the buoyancy-driven turbulent ventilation and heat transfer in a triangular attic space of a gable-roof residential building under...
متن کاملWind Tunnel Tests for Wind Pressure Distribution on Gable Roof Buildings
Gable roof buildings are widely used in industrial buildings. Based on wind tunnel tests with rigid models, wind pressure distributions on gable roof buildings with different aspect ratios were measured simultaneously. Some characteristics of the measured wind pressure field on the surfaces of the models were analyzed, including mean wind pressure, fluctuating wind pressure, peak negative wind ...
متن کاملGable Roof Detection in Terrestrial Images
This paper presents an automatic method for gable roof detection in terrestrial images. The purpose of this study is to refine the roofs of a 3D city model automatically derived from aerial images. The input images consist of geo-referenced terrestrial images acquired by a mobile mapping system (MMS). The raw images have been rectified and merged into seamless façade texture images (one texture...
متن کاملthe effects of planning on accuracy and complexity of iranian efl students’ written narrative task performance
this study compared the different effects of form-focused guided planning vs. meaning-focused guided planning on iranian pre-intermediate students’ task performance. the study lasted for three weeks and concentrated on eight english structures. forty five pre-intermediate iranian students were randomly assigned to three groups of guided planning focus-on-form group (gpfg), guided planning focus...
