Master Creating Sustainable and Healthy Buildings: A Course on Natural Ventilation and Building Optimization in 4 weeks through hands-on, project-based online training with DSTC.
In this course, you will learn about the principles of natural ventilation, including the benefits and challenges associated with natural ventilation in building design. Every participant receives a verified e-Certificate and e-Marksheet from the Deep Science & Technology Consortium.

β’ A portfolio-grade biotechnology deliverable you can defend and extend.
β’ A verified e-Certificate of competency and e-Marksheet from the Deep Science & Technology Consortium.
β’ Wind-driven and buoyancy-driven flow, and the stack effect that powers it
β’ Cross ventilation, single-sided ventilation and their differing depth limits
β’ Pressure coefficients, opening area and the flow rate they permit
β’ Ventilation rates under ASHRAE 62.1 and the basis of those numbers
β’ CO2 as a proxy for ventilation adequacy, and what it does not measure
β’ Particulates, VOCs and the case for filtration where outdoor air is poor
β’ Adaptive comfort under ASHRAE 55 and its wider acceptable range
β’ Air speed, draught risk and the cooling effect of elevated air movement
β’ Occupant control and why perceived control raises tolerance
β’ Night purge, thermal mass coupling and diurnal temperature swing
