This paper presents a model-based optimal control strategy for multi-zone air-conditioning systems with strict humidity control.
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.
This paper presents a model-based optimal control strategy for multi-zone air-conditioning systems with strict humidity control.
The interest in phase change materials (PCMs) as a solution for thermal energy storage has been growing for the last decades.
This paper presents results from a project on the assessment of the indoor air quality (IAQ) benefits that might accrue from the use of a balanced energy recovery ventilation system.
Bio-based insulation materials represent an alternative to petro-based materials which may contribute to enhance buildings energy efficiency.
The concentration of carbon dioxide is used as an important index of indoor air quality representative of body odor or bioeffluents in Japan.
Cooking is one of the most substantial sources of indoor air pollution in most residences. This is mitigated most often by exhaust devices located near cooking surfaces.
