Natural and mixed mode ventilations are considered to be an energy efficient way to provide building cooling. However, it is difficult to estimate and achieve the desired performance due to the complexity of the system. This seminar introduces advancements in simulation research to enable the optimized design and operation of buildings with natural and mixed mode ventilation.
