The current ventilation condition of the hot and humid regions was analyzed through on-site investigation. It is found that residents in this region expect to improve indoor thermal environment through natural ventilation as much as possible. Then, it comes to a conclusion by the field test that natural ventilation has certain practical effect on improving indoor thermal environment. CFD simulation software is employed to verify the test result. Based on PMV modified model, and according to norms, geography and climate combined with the measured and simulated results, the application of the time and effectiveness of natural ventilation in hot and humid region were analyzed, to some extent, providing a basis for reducing the air-conditioner's runtime with natural ventilation.
