PREDICTING THE PRESSURE REGIMES AND INDOOR-OUTDOOR AIR EXCHANGE IN A
MULTI-UNIT RESIDENTIAL BUILDING

Panagiota Karava, Andreas K. Athienitis, James T. Reardon, and Ted
Stathopoulos

This paper is part of a research project aiming to model the impact of
air leakage on pressure regimes, resultant air movement and energy use
in high-rise residential buildings using an advanced energy and airflow
simulation tool: ESP-r. Simplified simulations for small sections of the
building for which experimental data are available are carried out
first. Results are also presented for the second stage of the research -
transient whole building simulation.

Subject: [BLDG-SIM] Model suggestions


A friend is trying to model natural ventilation for an apartment
building using individual stacks for each apartment. He is looking for a
combined airflow, thermal, & vapour model that includes the wind effects
at the top of the stack. I've given him a couple possibilities but he's
open to hearing of others. Suggestions?

thanks
