LoginIn this paper the concentration of CO2 is taken as an index of personnel contamination and the concentration of TVOC as an index of building contamination, which meets the needs of energy saving and indoor air quality improvement through air con
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.
Access to the publications is free of charge.
The aim of the project described in this paper is to investigate the effect of indoor air quality and ventilation rates on pupils’ performance and health using psychological tests on the one hand and to recommend suitable ventilation rates for cl
For that study passive tracer gas measurements of ventilation were performed in a single-family house and in a flat in Stockholm during four consecutive winter seasons The correlation between ACH and indoor-outside temperature difference is analy
In this paper, an experimental setup .has been used to investigate the indoor environment in the classroom using confluent jet ventilation .
The Danish Building Research Institute has initiated a 3-phased research programme whose aim is to develop energy-efficient ventilation strategies to provide a healthy and a comfortable indoor climate and to reduce energy consumption .
The performance of the ventilation system in a large welding working place was evaluated for that study.
A limited number of studies on the effectiveness of prevention and remediation of IAQ problems in homes were identified.
Air filters used in general ventilation are tested in laboratory according to EN 779 standard which has been revised in 2002.The objective of the tests described in EN 779 Annex A is to determine if the efficiency of the filter material is based o
Health and comfort performance criteria for buildings have been defined.
This paper describes some of the principles applied in the CEN standard "Criteria for the indoor environment including thermal environment, indoor air quality (ventilation), light and noise'.
In the present study, the horizontal pivot window is replaced by horizontal louvers.A numerical method (CFD) was used to simulate ventilation performance of different louvers depths as well as different wind speed.
This paper sums up the current results of the IAQ characteristics in 104 child care centers (CCC) , using 4 different ventilation strategies.The corresponding respiratory health symptoms of attending children with their frequency and prevalence
This paper sums up a detailed (CFD) study of the flow around a Computer Simulated Person (CSP) in a displacement ventilated room.
This paper deals with estimated ventilation rates and symptoms in office workers. For that base study the authors used the U.S. EPA data from 100 large U.S.
With the analysis of the U.S. EPA BASE data from 100 U.S. office buildings, the authors made associations between moisture and ventilation system contamination with lower respiratory and mucous membrane symptoms .
