Natural Cooling Techniques

Night flushing strategy determined by three main factors which is external airflow rate in the room, the flow pattern and the thermal mass distribution

• True

• False

Greater radiative cooling is attained for clear cloudy condition and lower temperature difference

• True

• False

Night flushing strategy works when windows are open during the day and closed at night

• True

• False

Free running is a part of ventilative cooling strategy

• True

• False

Earth coupling involves the process of convection

• True

• False

Natural ventilation is airflow that flows naturally through pressure generated from the outside into a building or space with any mechanical assistances

• True

• False

Sliding windows are more effective than louvres windows against the rate of air flow into the space

• True

• False

Ventilation rate is an air volume added to or removed from a space in one hour

• True

• False

The use of fountains and vegetation in the courtyards, or the act of pouring water on the floor, are good examples of direct evaporative cooling techniques

• True

• False

Natural cooling techniques can reduce energy consumption and the effect of global warming

• True

• False
