A new methology using agent-based modeling for human behavior simulation is presented.
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.
A new methology using agent-based modeling for human behavior simulation is presented.
Today’s thermostat setpoint models naïvely assume fixed schedules, ignoring the reality of user control and its large variability.
This paper describes the results of monitoring cam-paigns of a solar driven adsorption air-conditioning system.
Our research group has been working on modeling of occupant behavior relating to window and air conditioner usage for energy simulation of residential buildings.
Integrated building performance simulation (IBPS) provides an appropriate means to appraise the performance of low energy communities featuring cooperating technologies for demand management and lo
Quick information of airborne infectious disease transmission in enclosed environments is critical to reduce the risk of infection of occupants.
Being highly insulated, low energy buildings are very sensitive to variable solar and internal gains.
In this article, an under-floor air distribution system is analyzed. The inlet device is placed near a thermal manikin and several turbulence intensities are imposed.
