Analysis of natural ventilation in buildings
Abstract
The paper starts by emphasizing significance of climate in rooms destined for human habitation. The significance of ventilation and selection of ventilation type in buildings is described, and proposals are given for improving natural ventilation in buildings. It is shown that our technical regulations for the design and realization of natural ventilation in buildings have not been harmonized with technical regulations for energy savings, thermal protection and noise protection in buildings. The authors recommend harmonization of our technical regulations with those applied in the EU.
