    Passive design aims to create comfortable indoor conditions using minimal mechanical systems. It maximizes natural sources of heating, cooling, and ventilation by harnessing environmental conditions like sunlight, cool night air, and air pressure differences. Passive measures do not involve mechanical or electrical systems, instead relying on considerations like location, orientation, shading, thermal mass, and window placement. For new construction, common passive strategies include optimizing building orientation, passive solar design, and natural ventilation through properly sized windows. Retrofitting existing homes can focus on improving natural ventilation and lighting through windows and reducing air infiltration around doors and windows.

    PASSIVE DESIGN

    Designers tune the thermal characteristics of buildings so


    that they moderate external environmental conditions
    and maintain internal conditions using the minimum
    resources of materials and fuel.
    Passive design maximises the use of 'natural' sources
    of heating, cooling and ventilation to create
    comfortable conditions inside buildings. It harness
    environmental conditions such as solar radiation, cool
    night air and air pressure differences to drive the
    internal environment.
    Passive measures do not involve mechanical or
    electrical
    systems.
    Passive design can include:

    🞇 Passive cooling.
    🞇 Passive heating.
    🞇 Passive ventilation (or natural ventilation).
    🞇 NB: Passive solar design is an aspect of passive
    building design that focusses on maximising the use of
    heat energy from solar radiation.
    Passive design can include consideration of:

    🞇 Location.
    🞇 Landscape.
    🞇 Orientation.
    🞇 Massing.
    🞇 Shading.
    🞇 Material selection.
    🞇 Thermal mass.
    🞇 Insulation.
    🞇 Internal layout.
    🞇 The positioning of openings to allow the penetration of
    solar radiation, visible light and for ventilation.
    For new construction, the following passive design
    strategies are typically used:

    🞇 Building location and orientation

    -harness the natural heating power


    of the sun and cooling
    power of the wind by locating
    and orienting your
    home correctly.
    🞇 Passive solar

    - heat your
    home using solar
    energy without any
    mechanical devices.
    🞇 Natural
    ventilation

    - use natural winds to


    cool or heat your
    house by
    properly positioning
    and sizing your
    windows or exhaust
    vents.
    🞇 Natural lighting

    - use natural
    light to reduce
    artificial lighting
    usage.
    For existing homes, the following passive design strategies are
    feasible and effective:

    Natural ventilation

    🞇 Windows, skylights, and roofs


    - retrofit or upgrade your windows, skylights, and roofs to
    reduce
    energy
    losses of
    your home.
    Natural lighting

    🞇 Reduced air infiltration -


    improve seals around your
    windows and doors to
    reduce air leaks that can
    cause up to 40% of building
    heat losses.
    Conclusion
    Passive design uses layout, fabric and form to reduce or
    remove mechanical cooling, heating, ventilation and
    lighting demand. Examples of passive design include
    optimising spatial planning and orientation to control solar
    gains and maximise daylighting, manipulating the
    building form and fabric to facilitate natural ventilation
    strategies and making effective use of thermal mass to
    help reduce peak internal temperatures.
