Abstract:This paper’s objective and novelty is to understand the impact of different natural ventilation strategies as well as the effect of a proposed smart controlled ventilation strategy on cooling energy saving and thermal comfort in a residential building. Afterwards, an investigation of the Climatic Potential of Natural Ventilation (CPNV) in hot and dry climates, and particularly the potential of the night ventilation strategy under present and future climates, was made. Two prediction climate change scenarios, R… Show more
