OSTI ID:5990929
Historically, buildings and their occupants have been cooled in the summertime by opening up the building and ventilating whenever the outdoors were pleasant, particularly at night. With mechanical air conditioning becoming increasingly expensive, natural ventilation and other low energy (passive cooling) solutions for summertime building cooling problems are being reexamined. The purpose of this paper is to summarize the existing body of knowledge in natural ventilation, and point out areas of research undertaken.
