Air supplied by ventilation plants and air conditioning systems carries small particles whose size depends on filtration device efficiency.
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.
Air supplied by ventilation plants and air conditioning systems carries small particles whose size depends on filtration device efficiency.
For the near future the expectation of experts is that the most promising systems will be based on demand-controlled hybrid ventilation technologies.
There is a need to improve the accuracy of infrared thermography for measuring the temperature distribution of building exterior surfaces.
Investigations were carried out into the airflow in a non-unidirectional airflow cleanroom and its affect on the local airborne particle cleanliness.
In this paper, a review is made of the adaptive thermal comfort model.
It has been found that, among the tools and methods available for the energy calculation of double envelope elements, there are some debatable aspects such as: the selection of correlations for cal
