RESEARCH POSTER ON PASSIVE DESIGN STRATEGIES

The project aims to allow us, students, to research and come up with certain passive design strategies that are suitable to a current building that faces thermal issues or relying too much on active cooling methods. We are to survey a building of our own choice which features passive design strategy for tropical climate within the Klang Valley and highlight any thermal problems found within the building and design a solution to overcome the problem. Should there be none, we are to study on the successful passive cooling strategies that have already been initiated. Much research and survey have to be carried out on the building in regards to the position of the building and the materials and cooling designs used.

LEARNING OUTCOMES

This project allows me to identify the heat transfer within the building and the surroundings and also the people involved in it. Through the site visit itself, I was able to understand the thermal comfort and identify the factors related to it. Other than that, I also learned to apply and calculate the heat gain calculation and think critically the improvements for better thermal comfort in the .
