Passive Cooling Techniques for A Green Building
Nikhil Bachani
Abstract :
Natural or Passive Cooling techniques help in reducing or some cases, Eliminating the mechanical air conditioning requirements in areas where cooling is a major problem. The use of air conditioners and coolers, conventionally, expends a huge sum of money in power and operational requirements. Passive Cooling is an initiative in the direction of reducing the expenditure on cooling and also providing a clean atmosphere to thrive in. In the present scenario of depleting natural resources, energy crisis and the global carbon emissions problem, green buildings provide a healthy escape from the traditional mechanical operations inside the structures. Passive Cooling is one such aspect of green building design. It employs the natural techniques and sources of cooling thereby rendering a building totally energy–efficient. Thus, the paper aims at explaining the various processes that could be used to achieve proper cooling and ventilation and paves way for the development of green buildings.
