Natural Ventilation Strategy in a Social Housing with Sub-humid Warm Climate Based on Thermal Comfort

Abstract Natural ventilation was analysed in a low-income dwelling to control open or closed windows according dynamic simulation process sub-humid warm climate. A selective algorithm natural determined an annual period per hour with the following findings: a) select determined, b) comfort hours year were evidenced open, and operate ventilation, c) schedule periods of presented. Meteonorm® data used on hourly basis Design Builder® simulations Meteorological System based 30 years measurements determine range. Conclusions: potential benefits be obtained by applying this strategy are observed
