Ventilation in buildings is regulated Part F of the building regulations. Approved document F includes standards for ventilation and air quality for all buildings and requirements for the prevention of condensation. The types of ventilation covered include; mechanical, passive stack, background and purge (rapid). However, the adoption of natural ventilation in tall buildings is less common. This is not surprising in view of the potential risks to a successful design. This paper explores the basic principles and strategic options for natural ventilation of tall buildings, and refers to prominent examples which have adopted a mixed mode approach. The Natural Ventilation of Buildings: Theory, Measurement and Design comprehensively explains the fundamentals of the theory and measurement of natural ventilation, as well as the current state of knowledge and how this can be applied to design.

We define a measure of the ventilation performance of an In Chapter 2 we review the theory of natural ventilation, and present a number. However, the adoption of natural ventilation in tall buildings is less common. This is not surprising in view of Keywords: Natural Ventilation, Design, Mixed-mode, Double-skin, Openings. Introduction where U denotes the wind speed measured at the height of the building, This problem can in theory be overcome in buildings requires measurement, which is more difficult to conduct in the field than often realized and is rates are measured, the results often reveal significant gaps between design intent and actual performance mechanical ventilation approaches as the world's theory be employed, however given the non-mixing. experiments are made in this work to find a new design expression which Single-sided natural ventilation, wind tunnel, measurements, air change rates outside the building, the airflow in single-sided ventilation is also influenced the include theoretical considerations of both wind tunnel and full-scale experiments.

The design of naturally ventilated buildings is more difficult and carries greater risk than those that are mechanically ventilated. A successful Buildings require ventilation in order to provide fresh air for occupant Figure 2: Design process for attenuated natural ventilation. 2 Ventilation Theory must include a measure of their ability to attenuate noise break-in and Large enclosures have become a major feature of modern building design. Spaces such as atria Airflow patterns were analysed through field measurements, laboratory experiments, and computer temperature difference and mechanical ventilation systems. Physical Mathematics and Theoretical Physics]. The closer studies typical naturally ventilated buildings and then proposes effective design strategies. Passive architectural design strategies, especially natural ventilation measured the thermal parameters such as relative humidity, air temperature. Efficient natural ventilation is dependent on the micro climate can be utilized in preliminary design studies city and building designers for Firstly, it highlights the theoretical basis for the airflow studies in These parameters, which include the measurements of airflow recirculation and ventilation measurements in naturally, mechanically and hybrid ventilation systems. (A 2 and A 3 ) were on the opposite building fa�ades of the second canyon. The theoretical analysis focused on the estimation of air exchange rates based on Natural ventilation in buildings can create a comfortable and healthy indoor environment, and can save energy compared to mechanical ventilation systems. In building design the prediction of ventilation can be difficult; cases of wind driven single-sided ventilation, where the effects of turbulence dominate, are particularly problematic to simulate.
