- W1499195848 abstract "This study investigated the effectiveness of wind-driven natural ventilation incourtyard and atrium-type buildings, particularly in the context of ventilative cooling.Courtyard and atrium buildings are currently enjoying great popularity. Perhaps aprimary reason for their revival comes from the energy and environmental awareness ofthe current period, in which courtyard and atrium concepts are emerging as verypromising.Wind-driven ventilation is one of the most basic and probably among the mostefficient ways to prevent overheating, and provide cooling in the summer season,especially in humid climates. A review of previous works showed that little attentionhas been given to the wind-driven natural ventilation capability of these structures, andto the means of maximizing this ventilation. This study was thus aimed to fill part of thegap in this subject.In order to evaluate the wind-driven ventilation effectiveness of these structures,and to examine some of the influential parameters, experimental wind tunnel tests weremade. Actual indoor air flows were measured in small replica models of four-storeycourtyard and atrium buildings by means of small calibrated orifice plates. A parametricstudy of the geometry of the courtyard was made in isolation conditions, where thedepth and breadth of the courtyard were systematically varied. Several atriumventilation modes were tested both in isolation and in urban terrains. The tests involveddifferent roof geometries and various roof porosities. The measurements were followedby a discussion on the validity of simple computational methods to predict airflow inatria.The investigation portrayed the importance of some factors, such as the windorientation rather than the courtyard geometry, for enhancing the flow in thesestructures. The superiority of some atrium designs over the courtyard types, particularlyin sheltered sites, was underlined.The study concluded with a discussion of design guide-lines and referred thereader to an application as an example, describing a simple step-by-step method toestimate the cooling benefits of these structures in a particular site, and making use ofthe measurement data obtained from the study." @default.
