Abstract

Natural ventilation in buildings is a well known strategy for energy saving to ensure occupant" s thermal comfort without any energy consumption and influence on global warming. In the present study, airflow inside and around two types of terraced house model, one with a porch and another without a porch, have been numerically simulated using Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes model to evaluate the effect of a porch on wind-induced ventilation. The results of velocity distribution inside rooms and ventilation rates of openings revealed that the porch has a significant effect on the flow field modification, resulting in the better ventilation rate of the building.
