Control on rain: window closed when it’s rainingControl on wind speed: wind closed when the wind speed is greater than a thresholdControl on outside temperature: The current control logic compares the outside air temperature with a lower limit. No upper limit control exists for outside temperature for window opening. In a hot and dry climate, the control on the outside air dew point temperature will not be sufficient to limit outside air admission at high temperature.

Windows are available in a Depending on the type of window specified they can be made from:

Timber (softwood or hardwood),

Powder coated Aluminium, most common glazing is double

Sash Window

The vertical sliding sash windows were often used in Georgian Architecture such as the ones shown above. The two sliding sashes were allowed to slide up or down to provide ventilation.

• Stack Ventilation It is caused by pressure, For stack ventilation to work properly

there must be a temperature difference. As the warm air (usually given off by the occupants and their computers), which is less dense, in the building rises, the cooler air is sucked from the openings below.

Clerestory windowWindows are the most common way to admit daylight into a space. Their vertical orientation means that they selectively admit sunlight and diffuse daylight at different times of the day and year. Therefore, windows on multiple orientations must usually be combined to produce the right mix of light for the building, depending on the climate and latitude. There are three ways to improve the amount of light available from a window: [3] (a) placing the window close to a light colored wall, (b) slanting the sides of window openings so the inner opening is larger than the outer opening, or (c)(c) using a large light colored window-sill to project light into the room.Different types and grades of glass and different window treatments can also affect the amount of light transmission through the windows.

a clerestory;. clear storey, also clearstory, clearstorey, or overstorey) is a high section of wall that contains windows above eye level. The purpose is to admit light, fresh air, or both.

Another important element in creating daylighting is the use of clerestory windows. They can be used to increase direct solar gain when oriented towards the equator. When facing toward the sun, clerestories and other windows may admit unacceptable glare. In the case of a passive solar house, clerestories may provide a direct light path to polar-side (north in the northern hemisphere; south in the southern hemisphere) rooms that otherwise would not be illuminated. This method has the advantage of reducing the directionality of light to make it softer and more diffuse, reducing shadows.
