Bibliographic database Airbase
AIRBASE is the Bibliographic Database of the AIVC. It contains publications and abstracts of articles related to energy efficient ventilation. Where possible, sufficient detail is supplied in the bibliographic details for users to trace and order the material via their own libraries. Topics include: ventilation strategies, design and retrofit methods, calculation techniques, standards and regulations, measurement methods, indoor air quality and energy implications etc. Entries are based on articles and reports published in journals, internal publications and research reports, produced both by university departments and by building research institutions throughout the world. AIRBASE has grown and evolved over many years (1979 to present day, over 22000 references and 16000 documents available online). For most of the references, the full document is also available online.
The AIVC website includes a protected content feature that provides access to AIRBASE. Access to the protected content is free of charge but requires you to register first.
Ventilation strategies play an important role of enhancing thermal comfort, Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) andenergy conservation in any conditioned space.
The European Commission has mandated CEN to produce a set of standards to support MemberStates for the national implementation of the EPBD.
Introduced in late 90’s, Impinging Jet Ventilation (IJV) is the system that can utilize stratification, while supplying with medium to high velocity.
The concept of a ventilated double façade is invented with the intention of improving the thermal qualities of a fully glazed façade. Over the years, the properties of the single glazed façade have improved.
Building energy simulation has proved useful in the development of building energy codes (especiallyperformance-based) and subsequent code compliance checking.
The VOC removal filter for ceiling cassette type air conditioners was developed as a countermeasure against “sick school”.
The three-dimensional heat transfer performance of the slotted light steel-framed composite wall atminimum temperature is simulated using the finite element software of ANSYS.
IMPROVING INDOOR AIR QUALITY IMPROVES THE
PERFORMANCE OF OFFICE WORK AND SCHOOLWORK | 2007 | English
Recent studies show that improving indoor air quality (IAQ) from the mediocre level prevalent in manybuildings worldwide improves the performance of office work by adults and the performance ofschoolwork by children.
The main objective of the ongoing research project described in this paper was to study the potential forreducing energy used for ventilating buildings by using low-polluting building materials, withoutcompromising the indoor air quality.
This paper examines air-conditioning loads by several air-conditioning patterns and heat methods of asuper high-rise residence by using the dynamic simulation software THERB (the simulation softwareof the thermal environment of residential buildin
All over the world, Chinese restaurants can be found everywhere and the Chinese foods are famous.The Chinese food preparation procedure includes: frying, stir-frying, stew, etc.
Detailed airflow pattern and particulate contamination characteristics, induced by dump-type air supplyin a full-scaled conventionally-ventilated clean room, are investigated numerically.
The particle-free conditions provided by cleanrooms are vital for much of modern manufacturingindustry. There has been a substantial increase in the working environment of cleanroom.
This paper aims at pointing out that how a District Cooling system can be a more energy efficientsolution compared with a decentralized cooling solution.
It is difficult to satisfy all workers in an office with respect to thermal comfort by a total air conditioningsystem. An individually controlled system that can create a preferable thermal environment for eachoccupant is therefore needed.
Most of the electric power in China is from coal combustion power station, so that the pressure ofenvironmental protection is high.
This study reports the findings from subjective responses of tropically-acclimatized people and theirrelationships with cutaneous indicators at three air temperatures, i.e. 20.0, 23.0, and 26.0C.
Many existing Building Management systems (BMS) used for building services system control were notdesigned to incorporate records of occupant view and did not integrated the real-time occupantsresponse in order to fine tune the building services s
On the environmental problem, the university is considered as the education organ to play a guidingrole, it will be very important materials to grasp the consumption situation of the energy for saving theenergy, making consuming energy standards i
