Exhaust effectiveness indicates how effectively contaminated air can be removed from a space, whereas air change effectiveness indicates how effectively distribute fresh air into the space.&nb
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.

In this study, we propose a method for forecasting heat emission effect in a small single-sided slit opening.
This study was aimed at making a model which predicted olfactory sensation.
In extended laboratory measurements, the combination of new innovative domestic ventilation systems with low temperature heating is investigated, using the advanced EnoTemp measurement equipment.
An isothermal CFD study was made of a building perpendicular to the wind direction. The building was modelled with a closed façade, and consecutively with one and multiple openings.
Tracer gas measurements are an unparalleled means of measuring air recirculation, leakage, and air flow rates in air handling systems [1-5].
In Japan, natural ventilation through large openings has been used for cooling in summer and medium season.
Recently, a lot of multiple packaged unit system is adopted in small to medium sized buildings in Japan.
