The previous paper (Part 1) proposed the concept of "equivalent material age" that uses the Arrheniusrelation and explained a method for long-term prediction of indoor volatile organic compound (VOC)concentration considering temperature dependence. This paper first describes the experimentconducted to validate the long-term concentration formula and the results of the experiment and reportson a comparison of the measured values obtained with the predicted values. The experiment wasconducted by a method conforming to JIS A1901:2003. The material measured was formaldehyde.
