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.

This study compares the performance of three different double skin facade configurations in prevailing summer conditions in a temperate climate.

One of the big challenges in comparing measured and simulated energy performance of buildings is that most energy models do not capture the significant impact of installation, operational and degra

The accurate representation of building operation is essential for building simulation to represent the consequence of design and operational controls correctly.

Paul Bannister, PC Thomas, Peter Lowndes

In this paper, heating energy saving strategies for winter are proposed for office buildings with a multi-story double skin façade.
