Abstract
This paper investigates methods for controlling airflow in and around a building in order to improve indoor thermal comfort by utilizing cross-ventilation. In the first part of the study, field measurements are carried out to evaluate the effects of cross-ventilation on indoor thermal comfort. It was confirmed that a comfortable indoor thermal environment could be attained in a considerable part over summer by controlling the window opening in order to maintain the PMV value within the range â0.5
