Progress on Study of Double-Skin Facade Simulation

The ventilation strategies of double-skin facade were briefly introduced.Three methods(Nodal Network Simulation,Computational Fluid Dynamics Simulation,Building Energy Simulation) employed in the simulation of double-skin facade were summarized.Research status and approaches of simulation for double-skin facade at home and abroad were analyzed.The characteristics and application situation of these methods were also discussed.It is considered that double-skin facade should be simulated and analyzed at the building design processes in order to obtain the high performance double-skin facade.
