The study describes the potential improvement of summer comfort and reduction of energy consumption that can be achieved by adopting passive cooling solutions, such as daytime comfort ventilation with increased air velocities and night cooling, in domestic buildings. By means of dynamic simulations, the performances of ten ventilation and cooling strategies have been tested in four climatic zones across Europe and passive strategies were found to perform excellently in all four locations

Abstract

The study describes the potential improvement of summer comfort and reduction of energy consumption that can be achieved by adopting passive cooling solutions, such as daytime comfort ventilation with increased air velocities and night cooling, in domestic buildings. By means of dynamic simulations, the performances of ten ventilation and cooling strategies have been tested in four climatic zones across Europe and passive strategies were found to perform excellently in all four locations
