Query: A numerical approach to evaluating what percentage of a living space is
  well-ventilated, for the assessment of thermal comfort   A bioclimatic approach to designing comfortable buildings in hot and humid
tropical regions requires, firstly, some preliminary, important work on the
building envelope to limit the energy contributions, and secondly, an airflow
optimization of the building. For the first step, tools such as nodal or zonal
models have been largely implemented. For the second step, the assessment of
air velocities, in three dimensions and in a large space, can only be performed
through the use of detailed models such as with CFD. This paper deals with the
improvement of thermal comfort by ventilating around the occupants. For this
purpose, the average velocity coefficient definition is modified to be adapted
to CFD and the areas involving movement or the living spaces. We propose a new
approach based on the derivation of a new quantity: the well-ventilated
percentage of a living space. The well-ventilated percentage of a space allows
a time analysis of the aeraulic behaviour of the building in its environment.
These percentages can be over a period such as one day, a season or a year.
These kinds of results are helpful for an architect to configure the rooms of a
house according to their uses, the environment, the architectural choices and
the constraints related to the design of bioclimatic buildings.
