Abstract

The Covid-19 pandemic has brought lessons, especially in terms of preparedness for a future pandemic. Hospitals are overflowing with infected patients. At the peak of the Covid-19 pandemic, homes became self-isolation facilities due to inadequate healthcare facilities. Therefore, it is crucial to conduct research to investigate and prepare homes that lack ventilation. This study investigated air movement through windows and their configuration. The investigation focused on air movement in space to reduce transmission rates and better prepare homes for future pandemics. This study used quantitative methods with statistical analysis of measurement results from several sample houses located in two urban villages in Jakarta. The study was conducted in small to medium-sized landed houses. The aim was to identify patterns of relationships between climatological elements and their influence on air movement in a room through windows. The research results indicate that no correlation between the variables has been found. Statistical analysis revealed that the data for several combinations of tested variables were not normally distributed. Therefore, this research is continue to find an appropriate analysis model.
