A Strategies to Improve the Natural Ventilation Performance at Underground Parking Lot in Multi-Residential Buildings

ABSTRACT:Energy efficiency and indoor air quality have become main issue to develop healthy and sustainable building in these days. As an effort to reduce the energy consumption in multi- residential building, many attempts as like passive design strategies and renewable energy as well as active control method are tried. However, underground parking lot in multi-residential building seldom adopt the sustainable strategies and only mechanical system is installed as usual. Moreover, the mechanical system installed in underground parking lot is rarely operated due to the electric demand for operation after completion. In this study, as an energy efficient measure, natural ventilation system using stack effect as a driving force for underground parking lot will be proposed and the performance of the suggested system will be analyzed by simulation method.Keywords:Natural ventilation(자연환기), Stack effect(연돌 효과), Underground parking lot(지하주차장), Simulation(시뮬레이션), Contaminant concentration(오염물질농도)
