Application of Breathing Architectural Members to the Natural Ventilation of a Passive Solar House [PDF]

open access: goldEnergies, 2016
The efficient operation of a passive solar house requires an efficient ventilation system to prevent the loss of energy and provide the required ventilation rates. This paper proposes the use of “breathing architectural members” (BAMs) as passive natural ventilation devices to achieve much improved ventilation and insulation performance compared to ...
