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.
Nach der Wohnungslüftungsnorm DIN 1946-6 wird die über die Heizperiode gemittelte Infiltrations-Exfiltrations-Luftwechselrate aus der Luftwechselrate bei 50 Pascal (n50) abgeschätzt. Dabei wird zwischen windstarken und –schwachen Regionen und zwischen ein- und mehrgeschossigen Wohnungen unterschieden. Weitere...
Mit dem Amortisationstrainer, einer intuitiv zu bedienenden EXCEL®-Anwendung, können Energie-kosten transparent berechnet und als kumulierte jährliche Gesamtkosten inklusive der Investitions-kosten (mit/ohne Darlehensanspruch) grafisch dargestellt werden. Anders als bei bekannten Amortisationsrechnern weist der hier vorgestellte...
Legislative drivers and new research with demonstrated energy impact on the importance of building and ductwork airtightness are leading to increased activity in this aspect of building energy performance. The paper reviews examples of European countries that account for both building and ductwork airtightness and thus include...
