Abstract: According to the Auckland climate, building passive
design more focus on improving winter indoor thermal and health
conditions. Based on field study data of indoor air temperature and
relative humidity close to ceiling and floor of an insulated Auckland
townhouse with and without a whole home mechanical ventilation
system, this study is to analysis variation of indoor microclimate data
of an Auckland townhouse using or not using the mechanical
ventilation system to evaluate winter indoor thermal and health
conditions for the future house design with a mechanical ventilation
system.
