The work presented in this paper aims to compare two different climates in Australia and Reunion Island and to identify the similarities in terms of bioclimatic design of low energy building.
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.
The work presented in this paper aims to compare two different climates in Australia and Reunion Island and to identify the similarities in terms of bioclimatic design of low energy building.
The aim of the present work is to improve night venti-lation control strategies, specially for the mid-season periods where an unadapted control scheme can re-sult in undesirable heat loads.
This study investigates the impact of air tightness assumptions on the accuracy of energy performance predictions generated by building simulation of Australian office buildings.
This paper reports how the coefficient of performance (COP) of air-cooled chillers can be improved by adopting variable condensing setpoint temperature control and using mist evaporation to pre-coo
This paper adopts an Eulerian-Lagrangian approach to investigate the dispersion behaviors of human exhaled droplets under the displacement ventilation in a typical office room.
Within the scope of the HOMES programme, five pilot sites (real buildings) were chosen to study the benefits of active energy efficiency on building energy performance.
This paper deals with two examples of sources for uncertainties in the simulation of high efficiency buildings.
