Wind tunnel and full-scale data on airflow from natural ventilation and ceiling fans

Conference · · ASHRAE Trans.; (United States)
OSTI ID:6566117
; ; ;
The state of the art on predicting airflows from natural ventilation is discussed. The usefulness and limitations of wind-tunnel-derived building pressure coefficient data in predicting airflow are presented. Actual measured full-scale field data are provided to show the effects of atmospheric turbulence, window type, and insect screening on airflow. Also presented are airflow and airspeed data from ceiling fans.
