In the present study, the horizontal pivot window is replaced by horizontal louvers.A numerical method (CFD) was used to simulate ventilation performance of different louvers depths as well as different wind speed. Air flow was considered, turbulent, steady, and the effects of buoyancy were taken into account. Results are presented
A study on the influence of horizontal louvers on natural ventilation in a dwelling unit.
