Abstract:Energy consumption for air conditioning systems and thermal comfort in a building in Indonesia is quite high. The solution that can be developed is to use the thermal inertia stored in the soil. This research aims to design and test the effectiveness of heat transfer between soil-air as a passive coolant in building ventilation systems. This research was conducted for 48 hours, the incoming air velocity was 4.68 m/s, the measurement results showed various weather and temperature conditions including average li… Show more
