| Abstract | In United States, space heating, space cooling and ventilation of buildings consume 33% of the annual building energy consumption and 15% of the total annual energy consumption, leading to a number of energy and environment problems. Natural ventilation for heating, cooling and ventilation is a good solution and double-skin & solar chimney facades are a good architectural form for natural ventilation. The main work of this research is to study appropriate size of architectural forms (cavity depth and height of stack space) and available weather conditions (outdoor temperature and wind velocity) for natural ventilation at double-skin & solar chimney building, and potential energy saving by applying natural ventilation in double-skins facade building. This research can provide guideline to help designers to determine cavity depth and height of stack space for double-skin & solar chimney building at available climate zone. |
