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 necessity to provide and maintain high cleanness of air in the rooms of the highestcleanliness classes requires a proper adaptation of selection and designing methods for airfilters.

The Paper deals with numerical computations, carried out, in order to predict the effects of natural convection on the thermal performance of porous material.
Shankar V, Hagentoft C E
There is a growing demand for buildings to have a high indoor air quality environment. Twoof the main elements that contribute to this quality are temperature and air distribution withinthe occupied space.
Tinker J A, Al-Garny A M
The influence of natural convection on the thermal properties of insulating porous medium with air cavity is studied.
Shankar V, Hagentoft C E
An efficient ventilation system is characterised by a well-organised and turbulence-controlled airstream that rapidly corrects disturbances in air quality and thermal comfort in the ventilated space.Air supply and exhaust conditions are investigat

Split-system air conditioning is increasingly usedapplications, owing to its low cost and installationboth for residential and commercialease.
De Carli M, Peron F, Zecchin R
An efficient numerical method for solving the Reynolds-Averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS)equations with turbulence models for complex geometry and high Reynolds number flows isused to perform a highly-resolved computation of the turbulent flow in a str

Scale model experiments give possibilities for analyses of the design conceptions of ventilation especially of air distribution in large enclosures.
Hurnik M, Mierzwinski S, Popiolek Z
The effectiveness of ventilation related to the two primary tasks of ventilation, (I) the supply of fresh air, and (ii) removal of contaminants, is investigated.
Roos A
To evaluate the performance of a ventilation system, the local mean age of air has usually been used to estimate how efficiently fresh air is diffused to a desired location.
Peng S-H, Davidson L
Recent years have brought the popularity of methods in which neutral networks are applied. They seem of particular importance while dealing with diagnosing, predicting and estimating.
Piotrowski J Z
There are often tradeoffs among improving IAQ (Indoor Air Quality), maintaining thethermal comfort, and reducing energy consumption for HVAC (Heating, Ventilating, and Air-Conditioning) systems.
