✦ Synopsis

A new, integrated method to calculate the energy contrrbution of night ventilation techniques to the cooling load of a building is presented in this paper. The method is based on the principle of 'Balance Point Temperature' and permits the calculation of the energy required to cool a building to acceptable comfort conditions when night ventilation techniques are used. It also permits the calculation of the energy contribution of night ventilated buildings compared to conventional air conditioned buildings. air temperature profiler
