| الوصف: | Programmed conservation represents a significant shift in how heritage buildings are maintained. Instead of waiting for visible damage to occur before taking action, this approach focuses on monitoring potential risks that could cause harm and scheduling conservation measures proactively. Computer fluid dynamics (CFD) software is often employed in energy and comfort analyses of spaces, but its capability to visualize airflow in buildings makes it valuable for predicting or explaining damage resulting from issues related to natural ventilation. This article outlines the methodology used to analyze natural ventilation flows within the Casa de la Cultura of Liberia in Costa Rica, using AUTODESK CFD Ultimate software and a data analysis strategy developed by Victor Fuentes Freixanet and Manuel Rodríguez Viqueira. Additionally, the findings emphasize that architectural structures are inherently connected to their surroundings. Therefore, before planning any intervention in an existing building, it is crucial to consider contextual variables. This project is part of the research initiative titled “The Impact of Using Liberia City’s Soil as a Construction Material on the Hygrothermal Performance of Internal Spaces through Simulation Techniques,” developed by the Instituto Tecnológico de Costa Rica in collaboration with the Association for the Culture of Liberia. |
