Deterministic and non deterministic methodologies for the prediction of the air velocity in single sided natural ventilation configurations. | 1997 | English
Introduction of air infiltration and ventilation in a simple modelling for energy consumption estimation in air conditioned buildings. | 1997 | English
This study reports on the introduction of air infiltration and mechanical ventilationin a model for energy consumption estimation. The model applies to air conditionned nonresidential building and is developped to need few inputs.
Continuously rising energy costs, the demand for reduction of CO2-emission and theprohibition of CFC-containing refrigerants create a base for new concepts of air-conditioning(A/C) systems.
There are certain conditions which are of interest when designing for natural ventilation ofcommercial buildings.
A method for the economical optimisation of the design temperatures and the connecting flows of a cooling system. | 1997 | English
The planning parameters of a cooling system for ventilation, for example the vaporization andcondensing temperatures, heat capacity flow rates, design temperatures and designtemperature differences have a strong influence on the investment and ope
This paper deals with the interzonal air movement in a building, throughhorizontal openings, under natural convective conditions.
IEA Annex 27: comparison of performances of different ventilation systems in similar dwellings. | 1997 | English
The main goal of IEA Annex 27 "Evaluation of ventilation systems" is to develop tools toevaluate ventilation systems in an objective way in terms of indoor air quality, energy,comfort, noise, life cycle costs, reliability and other building relate
Passive cooling by natural ventilation, salt bath modelling of combined wind and buoyancy forces. | 1997 | English
We examine conditions under which the natural forces of wind and buoyancy may beharnessed in order to provide ventilation for cooling.
EC-THERMIE project Heerlerbaan: multifunctional appliances for retrofitting residential buildings. | 1997 | English
Many post-war residential buildings in the Netherlands have collective heating systems with poor energy efficiency. Also ventilation and DHW systems usually do not comply with current requirements.
The main source of humidity in office buildings is the human occupant. Moisture is therefore a result of heat transmission from the person to the room air.
Design of low energy office buildings combining mechanical ventilation for IAQ control and night time ventilation for thermal comfort. | 1997 | English
The design of low-energy office buildings requires specific attention to an energy efficient concept for providing good indoor air quality conditions.
