A methodology for 3-D multiphysics CFD simulation of air leakage in building envelopes

Air leaks into a building through various openings and cracks in the building envelope. This leakage affects indoor air quality, human comfort and, primarily, building energy consumption. Several experimental studies have estimated this energy impact to exceed 40% of the heating and cooling costs in...
