Abstract:
Energy consumption on domestic uses in Indonesia provokes designers to implement passive design concept as an effort to reduce energy consumption for household comfort without use of mechanical and electrical support. This research observed Kampung Deret Petogogan which a wind tunnel effect could not accurately provide natural comfort inside the row houses. Openings design was a key element to determine optimization of air movement indoors, including its positions, types, and dimensions. The goals were to identify the causes and determine ideal openings design to optimize indoors air circulation. First assessment involved relevant design theories that conducted as guidelines. Then the existed design openings were examined and compared with guidelines, thus the ideal design openings were generated. The final results concluded multiple solutions for optimizing indoor air circulation. An addition of wing wall, to help control the air movement. Repositioning the openings, both on walls and roofs. The selection of opening types which would be suitable based on air movement pattern. Lastly, redesign the dimension of the openings to fit the needs of natural comfort inside the houses.
