Abstract :
With people´s general awareness of passive cooling technology increased, natural ventilation in gymnasium gets more and more concerned. In this paper, three kinds of gymnasium patterns are analyzed by the use of CFD software, thus their ventilation and indoor thermal comfort condition can be simulated and compared, which provides an scientific basis for architects when they are designing gymnasium.
