This paper investigates thermal sensation in an air conditioned space with and without a water source such as a water pond and small fountain in Thailand.

Based on an application for standardization by the company ISOVER in October 2007, the German Industrial Standard DIN 4108 – 11 has been cleared by the responsible bodies in DIN for review by the committee NA005-56-93AA, “Airtightness”. The work on the details of the standard has been going on for seven and a half years now...

This research aims at quantifying the leakage occurring in Under Floor Air Distribution (UFAD) systems and Over Head Air Distribution (OHAD) systems.

Vehicular air conditioning systems are directly affected by the ducts and fans of the ventilation system.

In order to achieve the most accurate and repeatable – and therefore comparable – measuring results possible when testing the airtightness of buildings, you need testing devices that are able to measure with a level of accuracy adjusted to the intended purpose. If the users want to guarantee the accuracy of the measuring devices, they can...

Condensation risks in wooden building components are mainly caused by water vapor penetrating the cross section of the component through airflow. Even small pressure differentials result in a lot more vapor flowing through a joint of only a few millimeters than that which would migrate by diffusion through many more undisturbed square meters of area...

This paper discusses laboratory measurements on a small test house. IRT measurements and (de)pressurization tests were performed on different types of junctions, e.g. at the window-wall interface. The results were analysed by calculating the temperature factor, to compare IRT images from different joints...
