LoginWith a dynamical model, the thermal behavior of a single office room is simulated.
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 predominant route for air movements between the floors of two-storey dwellings is via the stairwell.
Pressure models require a good knowledge of the pressure distribution around the building and a precise description of air paths.
A new turbinemeter is developed to be used as a ventilating rate sensor in livestock buildings.
Ventilation performance of a vertical exhaust common-duct installed in a multi-story house was analysed using model experiment and computer simulation.
The performance of ventilation provision in subfloor cavities is relevant to the fields of energy efficiency, condensation risk, and air quality.
In order to reduce the convective flow which is the principal responsible for the high indoor 222Rn concentrations, several mitigation technics have been developed and used in many countries.
Building regulations prevailing in France made it compulsory to use specific ventilation systems in new residential buildings since 1969.
As a consequence of measures required for reducing the heating energy consumption in residential buildings , there have been more and more complaints in the last few years on the appearance of mould in dwellings .
Demand controlled ventilation systems have recently become an interesting opportunity to achieve acceptable indoor air quality while minimizing energy consumption.
The paper summarises the IEA, Executive Committee on Energy Conservation in Buildings and Community Systems, Annex 14 work on Condensation and Energy, a joint research effort of the Federal Republic of Germany, Italy, the United Kingdom, the Nethe
On basis of several case studies into the ventilation behaviour in dwellings in the Netherlands, it is possible to answer the question whether the type of ventilation device influences the behaviour of the occupants during mild winter periods (5 D
Turbulent flow fields of velocity and diffusion in several types of mechanically ventilated rooms are precisely analyzed both by model experiment and by numerical simulation based on the k-s two-equation turbulence model.
The ventilation system described here combines a central air shaft in the hall area with a mechanical waste air extraction system in the bathroom and in the kitchen.
In this paper the required ventilation air flow rates in residences with different pollutant loads are considered. The calculative study was carried out by using the load data presented in the literature.
The controllability of room air temperature in different heating systems connected to demand controlled ventilation systems was studied.
As part of the IEA Research Program Annex 18 "Demand Controlled Ventilating Systems" were tested in a one-family testhouse in relating to energy and ventilating specific aspects.
The paper presents results of ventilation characteristics of a lecture/seminar room obtained by various door-window opening combinations and positions, and the level of comfort and air quality resulted by the given window-ventilating modes.
This paper presents measuring results from experiments with integrated air heating and ventilation system in airtight well-insulated buildings in Stockholm (The Stockholm Project) .
Measurements of air change rates, carbon dioxide concentrations, room air temperatures and relative room air humidities in bedrooms of five well tightened dwellings were carried out in October 1989.
