Optimising natural ventilation using courtyard strategies: CFD simulation of a G + 1 office building in Madinah

The aim of this paper is to investigate different courtyard designs in office buildings in order to optimize the natural ventilation. A G+1 office building in Madinah, was chosen as a case study. By using IES simulation software the predicted energy consumption compared to the actual energy consumpt...
