Abstract:In order to reduce the energy consumption for cooling in our buildings, the use of passive cooling solutions is necessary. One of these solutions is natural ventilative cooling, where airflows generated by single-sided natural ventilation, until today have mainly been calculated from the De Gids & Phaff equation in the European Standard EN 15242:2007. In the revised standard EN 16798-7:2017, a new version of the equation for single-sided natural ventilation is released. The work in this paper will compare the … Show more
“…Existing models for single-sided ventilation rates driven by wind and buoyancy are based on empirical fits to data from field studies and wind tunnel experiments (Degids & Phaff 1982;Warren & Parkins 1985;Larsen & Heiselberg 2008). These models generally underestimate ventilation rates in full-scale tests (Larsen et al 2018;Gough et al 2020). This is likely to be useful in the context of calculating the time to ventilate a room as this will provide estimates with a safety margin.…”

“…SSV can be divided into SS1 (one opening) and SSn (multiple (n) openings) according to the opening number. According to literature, most wind tunnel experimental studies on SSV focused on SS1 Eftekhari et al, 2003;Yamanaka et al, 2006;Larsen and Heiselberg, 2008;Bu and Kato, 2011;Chu et al, 2011;Larsen et al, 2018).…”
