In the tropics, where air-conditioning consumes around 50% of the electricity, natural ventilation is a primary passive design strategy. Due the complexity of natural wind flow, Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulations are used to evaluate the efficiency of applied natural ventilation, however, architects and designers find it difficult to visualize the results provided by these simulations, something that can be improved with the use of better visualization tools. This research project uses a BIM created unit as a case study for CFD simulation of natural ventilation displayed in a VRenvironment, in order to improve design feedback and the visualization of simulation data for natural ventilation.
