Effect ofOpening SizeonWind-Driven Cross Ventilation
The International Journal of Integrated Engineering, 2021 The opening size is important to the ventilation of building because various opening sizes affects the ventilation performance for building. Therefore, the objective of this study is to investigate the effect of opening size on indoor airflow characteristics of naturally ventilated building model.

Natural Cross-ventilation of Buildings, An Experimental Study
Energy Procedia, 2015 AbstractNatural cross ventilation can be a promising passive solution for summer thermal comfort in buildings. It takes advantage of the night temperature of the air to cool the walls of the building. Although this technique is well-known in hot climate, its use in new buildings requires being able to predict the quantity of heat that can be dissipated.

Prediction of flow and dispersion in cross–ventilated buildings [PDF]
E3S Web of Conferences, 2019 The present paper presents a detailed computational analysis of flow and dispersion in a generic isolated single–zone buildings. First, a grid generation strategy is discussed, that is inspired by a previous computational analysis and a grid independence study.

A two-zone model for natural cross-ventilation [PDF]
Building and Environment, 2015 Cross-ventilation flows (CV) are characterized by significant inflow momentum conservation as fluid flows across an enclosed rectangular volume as a confined jet. When the inflow area is smaller than the volume cross-sectional area the CV flow has distinct jet and recirculation flow regions.

Computational fluid dynamics for cross‐ventilated airflow in an urban building
JAPAN ARCHITECTURAL REVIEW, 2022 AbstractIn this study, the velocity field in a naturally ventilated building within an urban‐like array was explored using large‐eddy simulations. Reduced‐scale building models were used to examine the impacts of the geometric conditions in the surrounding buildings and cross‐ventilating windows on the flow statistics and instantaneous velocity fields ...

Study on Utility Cross-Ventilation in Guangzhou and Shenzhen, China
Journal of Asian Architecture and Building Engineering, 2008 As rapid increase in energy consumption has raised concerns among researchers regarding the use of conventional air-conditioning systems, substantial effort has been devoted to the exploration of alternative solutions. One possible solution is a natural ventilation approach.
