Simulation of passive ground-coupled cooling system for a house in hot humid climate
Abstract The US government has set a target of reducing CO2 emissions by 20% below the 2005 targets by the year 2020. Literature review reveals that residential buildings contribute over 20% of the total emissions mainly used for space heating, cooling, water heating and lighting. In hot humid climates, the concern is mainly for cooling and hot water that account for over 50% of the total resid...
متن کاملComparative assessment of vernacular passive cooling techniques for improving indoor thermal comfort of modern terraced houses in hot¬タモhumid climate of Malaysia
The main objectives of this study were to investigate vernacular passive cooling techniques and their potential application for improving indoor thermal comfort of naturally ventilated, modern brick terraced houses in Malaysia. Field measurement was conducted in two traditional timber Malay houses and two traditional masonry Chinese shophouses to examine their indoor thermal environments. The r...
متن کاملCooling Effects of Natural Ventilation of a Home in Hot Dry Climate
Whereas natural ventilation design in hot climates is intended to mitigate discomfort effect of thermal transmission into building interiors, the uncertainty of the aggregate effect of the strategy on interior air temperature in hot dry climates has been expressed. This study investigated how air temperature in rooms of a residential building in a hot dry climate is affected by some natural ven...
متن کاملCooling buildings in hot humid climates – a decision model for ventilation
The study that is being undertaken at the University of Porto, Portugal, aims at creating a decision tool, based on the appropriate ventilation strategies for the cooling of buildings in hot humid climates. The climatic conditions of the Amazonic region of Manaus are taken as an example of this type of climate. First, we have to identify every single architectural or climatic parameter related ...
متن کاملDesign with Nature: Windcatcher as a Paradigm of Natural Ventilation Device in Buildings
The traditional architecture of Central Asia and the Middle East is the product of land, the local climate, and people’s culture. The human needs and the environment represented the most essential factors to be considered in their designs. The traditional and vernacular architecture of this region introduced many realistic solutions and devices to the local environmental problems such as the Wi...
