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.

In both, newly built and renovated buildings the building air-tightness has to be ensured. With a tight building envelope comes a low infiltration air-exchange.

The energy efficiency and energy consumption of mechanical ventilation systems depend mainly on the heat and cool recovery efficiency and the operational costs of electric energy for air handling u

Demand controlled ventilation (DCV) is seen more and more as a promising way to limit the energy consumption due to ventilation in buildings.

Samuel Caillou, Nicolas Heijmans, Jelle Laverge, Arnold Janssens

The aim of improving air tightness of structures is to prevent the uncontrolled air leakages through structures.

In recent years there has been much emphasis on improving the energy performance of Irish buildings.

Áine Broderick, Marie Coggins, Miriam Byrne

Building integrated renewable energy sources e.g. photovoltaic system is one of the promised solution for improving energy efficiency in building.

Ewelina Kubacka, Dariusz Heim

The indoor climate in residential buildings is affected by the people that live in the house and their activities.

Bart Cremers

Passive cooling by night ventilation is one of the most promising approaches to reduce cooling energy demand of office buildings in moderate climates.
