LoginThe infiltration data set covers December 1990 to October 1991 from Reference Unit #5 at the Alberta Home Heating Research Facility (AHHRF) with a total of 6063 hours of data.
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 computer program EMPTIED was used to assess the moisture performance of representative brick veneer and exterior insulation finish system (EIFS) walls under the climate conditions for fifteen locations in Canada The indoor conditions were assu
Displacement ventilation is a method that provides conditioned air to indoor environments with the view to improve air quality whilst reducing energy usage.
Prediction of ventilation, heat transfer and moisture transport in attics. | 1993 | English | 333 pp
The attic space of most residential buildings is well insulated from the house below, and therefore experiences extreme temperature conditions on seasonal and diurnal cycles.
This study, in progress in Trondheim, Norway, deals with the connection between energy economy and indoor air quality in detached houses. It includes 41 new houses, all equipped with balanced ventilation and heat-pump for energy savings.
This report is one of a series giving practical advice on methods of reducing radon levels in existing dwellings.
The term "buffer room" refers in this context to spaces built between thermally, visually, and acoustically "controlled" indoor rooms and the "no controllable" outdoor environment.
As active noise control systems begin to penetrate the market place, are the days of the passive attenuator numbered? Andrew Brister looks at the likely future for anti-noise.
To evaluate the health risk posed by particles emitted from sound absorbent materials used in ventilation channels, the number, size, shape and composition of fibers and other particles must be characterized.
HVAC system designs must address both high indoor air quality as well as energy efficiency as the awareness of and demand for proper air quality increases.
Is fighting sound with sound the future for noise control? James Macneil hears how active noise technology is slowly being fine-tuned for commercial use.
An ASHRAE special publication can help designers minimize the number and severity of HVAC system noise and vibration problems.
Since the mid 70's, the construction industry has made significant advances in energy conservation and improved indoor conditions.
