Single-sided natural ventilation : design analysis and general guidelines
Natural ventilation is an effective measure to save energy consumed in buildings and to improve indoor air quality. This study focuses specifically on the principles of single-sided natural ventilation design. Single-sided ventilation is very common in building designs and has been shown to produce …

Modeling on single-sided wind-driven natural ventilation
… a significant part of this energy being used for ventilation and cooling. Despite the large amount of energy used in buildings, reports have shown that the indoor air quality (IAQ) and thermal comfort are not satisfactory. The lowered productivity due to the bad IAQ could cause $125 billion loss …

CFD analysis of airflow patterns and heat transfer in small, medium, and large structures
… Previous research has not modeled natural ventilation situations that challenge common design rules of thumb used for cross-ventilation and single-sided ventilation. The current study uses a commercial code (FLUENT) to simulate cross-ventilation in simple structures and analyzes the flow …

An investigation into turbine ventilators as a potential environmental control measure to minimise the risk of transmission of tuberculosis - a laboratory and field study
… in the air until they are removed by dilution ventilation or other disinfection methods (Parsons, Hussey, Abbott, & de Jager, 2008) (National Department of Health, 2007). Dilution ventilation refers to the dilution of contaminated air with “clean” air (ACGIH, 2005), thereby reducing the …

Numerical simulations of airflow and heat transfer in a room with a large opening
Natural ventilation is an effective method to save energy required to condition buildings and to improve indoor air quality. Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) was used to model single-sided buoyancy-driven natural ventilation in a single room with a heater and door. The velocity and temperature …
