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.

Energy performance of mechanical ventilation systems in modern low energy and passive buildings is a crucial factor influencing overall energy performance of building.

Anna Dutka, Tomasz M. Mróz

The present study aims at investigating carbon dioxide (CO2) concentrations inside elementary schools’ classrooms and how students’ productivity is affected.

John Sifnaios, Paraskevi Vivian Dorizas, Margarita-Niki Assimakopoulos

This study presents a comparison of air leakage measurements collected recently (November 2013 to March 2014) with two sets of prior data collected between 2001-2003 from 17 new homes located near

Wanyu Rengie Chan, Max H. Sherman

The airtightness test of the building is one of a few building envelope measurements used in practice, which is quantitative, not just qualitative as e.g. infrared thermography.

Numerous studies have investigated the application of multi-zone demand-controlled ventilation for office buildings.

Arefeh Hesaraki, Jonn Are Myhren, Sture Holmberg

Demand controlled ventilation (DCV) considerably reduce the ventilation airflow rates and energy use compared to Constant Air Volume (CAV) systems.

Mads Mysen, Axel Cablé, Peter G. Schild, Kari Thunshelle

A voluntary certification for very low energy buildings has been implemented in 2013 in France, which requires among other the ventilation systems to be controlled by an independent technician.

Sarah Juricic, Florent Boithias

To ensure adequate indoor air quality, ventilation is necessary in new constructions as well as in modernized existing buildings.
