Abstract
There are various designs available for the nocturnal cooling applications in buildings. These designs can be categorised into active and passive cooling systems. Active cooling systems require circulation of working fluids such as water or air. Meanwhile, passive cooling systems do not require the circulation of working fluids. A lot of efforts also have been made in integrating the active or passive nocturnal cooling systems with various low carbon technologies. Although numerous studies can be found in the open literature pertaining to various designs and configurations of the nocturnal cooling systems, commercial development of these systems is still limited. Future studies should also be looked into the economic analysis of these systems which includes the equipment and material, installation, operating cost and potential energy savings incurred from the usage of the system as compared to the conventional mechanical cooling system.
