In-Situ Measurement

Nowadays, due to the higher energy performance of dwellings, ventilation plays an increasing role in maintaining a good indoor comfort. Therefore new ventilation strategies in combination with demand controlled ventilation are needed to accomplish high energy-efficient ventilation (limiting ventilation losses and auxiliary energy consumption) while providing good indoor air quality, thermal and acoustic comfort.

Specific and effective measures for international issues, such as prevention of global warming, energysaving, reduction of environmental loads, are urgently required.The improvement of the insulation efficiency of the house and the building is demanded as the part.For that purpose, it is also necessary to determine whether installed insulating materials have beeninstalled properly, and whether they can actually demonstrate the expected performance.On the basis of the results of various surveys, the infrared method was proposed as nondestructivein-site measuring method enabling simple measur
