Materials for the earth air pipe heat exchanger (eaphe) system as a passive ground cooling technology for hot-humid climate

The implementation of the earth-air pipe heat exchanger (EAPHE) system as a passive cooling technology for both residential and commercial buildings in the hot humid climate of Malaysia is relatively new. To date this technology has not been implemented in Malaysia, although it is proven in many stu...
