Influence of natural and mechanical ventilation on elimination of heat load in the loft space

Authors: 

Knizova K., Kovac M.

A purpose of this submission is a dynamic analysis of indoor environment on the suitably chosen classrooms, which are situated in the loft spaces of Civil Engineering Faculty in Kosice. The evaluation was doing by using energy simulation tool and is oriented on evaluation of heat load during summer period. The subject of analysis is to consider influence of selected mode of natural and mechanical ventilation on a modification of operative temperature in classrooms. The purpose of the whole submission is to obtain a dynamic view of indoor environment changes that are determined by internal and external factors, to compare the suitability of evaluated ventilation modes and possibility of their application in these areas.
