sampling location

It is widely recognised that the carbon dioxide (CO2) concentration level inside a building is a reflection of the indoor air quality in that building. In most buildings, occupants are a major source of CO2 through exhalation. It is generally accepted that the concentration of CO2 varies with location (horizontal and vertical) within an enclosed space and this can impact on the variation of indoor air quality within the space. Hence, measurement errors related to CO2 sampling strategies in a space are important as they can lead to uncertainties in the mean concentration for the space.
