FAÇADE DESIGN EFFECT ON CROSS-VENTILATION IN TAIWANESE SCHOOL BUILDINGS
Journal of Green Building, 2013 Abstract This study performed a three-dimensional numerical prediction for the induced airflow patterns and mean age of air (MAGE) around and inside a naturally ventilated school building, while accounting for the wind profile effect. Various fenestrations, hallways, and shading devices on the windward side of building were analyzed to ...
