A natural ventilation control in buildings based on co-simulation architecture and Particle Swarm Optimization

2016 IEEE International Conference on Systems, Man, and Cybernetics (SMC), 2016
This paper presents a building automation strategy for natural ventilation control and reducing building energy consumption. An on-off control is proposed in order to manage the windows opening and realize a natural ventilation flow guaranteeing indoor thermal comfort. The control logic is based on activation thresholds that are optimized to reduce the

Documentation and Evaluation of the Positive Contribution of Natural Ventilation in the Rural Vernacular Architecture of Cyprus

International Euro-Mediterranean Conference, 2014
In traditional buildings thermal comfort has been accomplished through the exploitation of passive strategies, i.e. natural ventilation and shading. This paper focuses on the investigation of natural ventilation in the vernacular architecture of Cyprus and on the documentation of the positive contribution of this strategy to the thermal comfort of the ...

3D architectured air sensing tubes for a portable mechanical ventilator

Flexible and Printed Electronics, 2021
Abstract Today, respiratory ventilators are in high demand at the peak of the COVID-19 outbreak. However, there are concerns regarding insufficient supply of ventilators to handle the impending surge due to the high cost, and slow production and deliveries. Thus, the development of a low-cost portable ventilator becomes essential.

Investigation of naturally ventilated shavadoons component: Architectural underground pattern on ventilation

Tunnelling and Underground Space Technology, 2019
Abstract There is increasing concern about environmental pollution and the need for efficient energy sources. Thus, natural ventilation using renewable energy without the need for mechanical devices has gained great importance. A shavadoon is an example of a natural ventilation system used for cooling and heating in Dezful, a warm and semi-humid city

The Role of Wind and Natural Ventilation in the Vernacular Architecture of Zavareh

International Journal of Ventilation, 2009
AbstractThe identification of effective factors in the historical formation of architecture can help develop architecture and its various aspects (Mofidi, 2005). These factors may be classified in the groups of cultural, historical and climatic. Specifically, the application of the native and traditional basis of past architecture can be highly ...
