Daftar Isi:
- DSF (Double-Skin Facade) aplications required on highrise building envelope to increase its thermal performance. The performance DSF with natural airflow, especially external air curtain mode, is affected by airflow around the building, and the design characteristics of the DSF. This paper investigated the performance of some DSF models, namely the multi-storey and box-window type, as well as those modification in utilizing natural airflow, especially with 90° wind direction toward the facade, using CFD techniques. The results showed that the multi-storey type has the best performance with higher average wind speed and equitable airflow distribution in all the facade zones.
