Numerical Investigation of Ground Cooling Potential for Malaysian Climate

Geographically, Malaysia located between 1° and 7° in North latitude and 100° and 120° in East longitude with the average daytime temperature about 31°C. However, temperature at 24°C is commonly applied for human comfort in commercial and residential building which is increasing the demand of electr...
