| dc.description.abstract | Natural ventilation is the process of supplying and removing air by means of
purpose-provided aperture (such as openable windows, ventilators and shafts) and the
natural forces of wind and temperature-difference pressures. Natural ventilation may be
divided into two categories:
Controlled natural ventilation is intentional displacement of air through specified
openings such as windows, doors, and ventilations by using natural forces (usually by
pressures from wind and/or indoor-outdoor temperature differences). It is usually
controlled to some extent by the occupant.
This project has been carried out and two models terrace house were built. One
house with natural ventilation design and one another house model that has no natural
ventilation design. Natural ventilation design requires the identification of the wind
direction happens, strategic orientation and the opening in a closed building. This hole
includes windows, doors, ventilators on the roof, skylight, ventilation holes in the walls
and so forth. But the project was carried and focusing only on the design of the terrace
house in order to provide or support the natural flow. From the results obtained in this project, the house which has a natural ventilation design, give a high rate of air flow, high velocity winds and lower temperatures than a house without natural ventilation design.
With natural ventilation design that has been carried out in this project, is expected able to create or develop an efficient ventilation system design for a terrace house. | en_US |
