An Assessment of Heating Load Reduction by a Solar Air Heater in a Residential Passive Ventilation System

In this paper, the authors examined the technology to maximize the use of renewable energy. Passive ventilation systems are expected to reduce the energy consumption of the fan and the maintenance burden. In addition, the wall-mounted solar air heater can supply thermal energy without using any ener...
