Project Background:
● Uses natural forces (e.g., wind) for fresh air
● Reduces energy consumption by 10–30% compared to mechanical systems
● Improves indoor air quality
● Enhances comfort and health
Objectives:
● Implement sustainable ventilation strategies such as: Bubble sheet, Roof
coating and super coating, Window ventilation, Turbo ventilation, etc.
● Propose sustainable ventilation system to the Drawing hall of Academic
Building ‘B’ of SSVPS’s College of Engineering, Dhule
Description:
● Sustainable ventilation strategies reduce energy use while improving thermal
comfort & IAQ
● Combines passive cooling, stack effect, and wind-driven ventilation
● Monitoring data validates effectiveness for hot climates like Dhule
Outcome:
● Insulated covering (bubble sheet + asbestos ceiling) & coated turbo ventilator
roof: Reduces indoor temperature by ~6°C & Enhances thermal comfort
Impact on the Society:
● Beyond technical success – tackles health, environmental, economic &
educational challenges
● Proves sustainable ventilation works in Dhule’s climate
● Empowers communities to adopt eco-friendly solutions
Funding Information:
This project has received research funding of Rs. 4,00,000/- from Dassault
System’s La Foundation during F.Y. 2024-25.
