The feasibility of Passive Downdraught Evaporative Cooling (PDEC) of multi-storey office buildings in Cairo - a modelling study

Climatic stress on buildings in hot-dry climates has long been negotiated by means of evaporative cooling, the origins of which could be traced back to Egypt and the Middle East. However, this millennia-old strategy needs to undergo much scrutiny in its design and implementation to meet the requirem...
