The Effect of Window Placement on Natural Ventilation Capability in a Jakarta High-Rise Building Unit

Abstract: The purpose of this study was to investigate the natural ventilation potential in an apartment unit in a high-rise building. A corner unit of a two-bedroom apartment was selected for this study, where single-sided and cross ventilation occurred in the unit. This study employed a CFD simulation to model the indoor airflow of an apartment unit in West Jakarta. The units were modelled and simulated using CFD with a RANS k-ε turbulence model. The results were validated with the readings from the field measurements… Show more

“…Currently, research on natural ventilation primarily focuses on the building envelope [11][12][13][14][15][16][17], building energy consumption [18][19][20] and the thermal comfort of occupants [13,[21][22][23]. The natural ventilation problems of caves differ from those of traditional buildings due to differences in their architectural forms, research contents and boundary conditions.…”

“…Based on a review of previous studies [19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30], ventilation type, ventilation flowrate, and indoor temperature were chosen as the process variables affecting ventilation efficiency. As shown in Figure 1a, the ventilation system, designed for this study as a DVS, had the ventilation inlet (VI) located near the floor while the ventilation outlet (VO) was mounted on the ceiling.…”

“…Numerous cases of the virus spreading in the form of airborne transmission have been reported in indoor spaces such as restaurants [14], public transportation [15], hospitals [16], airplanes [17], and offices [18] when ventilation was not properly maintained. Because indoor ventilation is very important to reduce the likelihood of virus spreading, various studies on ventilation have been conducted to improve indoor air quality [19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27].…”
