Perihal e-buku ini

Natural Building Cooling explores the crucial role of passive cooling and natural ventilation in sustainable architectural design. It highlights how these strategies, which utilize natural resources to regulate building temperatures, are vital for reducing energy consumption and combating climate change. The book delves into the physics of heat transfer and fluid dynamics, demonstrating how techniques like shading and earth coupling can minimize reliance on mechanical cooling systems. Intriguingly, the book traces the evolution of these techniques from ancient vernacular architecture to modern sustainable designs, revealing that buildings can, in a sense, ""breathe.""

The book progresses by first establishing the core principles of passive cooling and natural ventilation, then moves into specific ventilation strategies like stack and cross ventilation. Finally, it discusses the integration of these methods into comprehensive architectural designs, emphasizing the importance of climate-responsive design and material selection. Through real-world case studies and energy modeling, it demonstrates the effectiveness of these strategies across diverse climates and building types.

Ultimately, this book makes a case for harmonizing buildings with their environment.
