Performance evaluation on ventilation systems with full-scale test house

The performance of various kinds of ventilation systems (mechanical supply, mechanical exhaust, mechanical supply and exhaust, crawl space supply and hybrid exhaust) was evaluated in a full-scale test house during heating period. The concentration method (SF6 tracer gas) was used to measure the ventilation air flow rates to each roomntilation. Results of experiments are presented, showing the air distribution between floors and rooms.
