Volume content
Study of the ventilation on an ancient building located in the centre of Rome and now used as a university office.

An investigation of some Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) parameters in a significant office of the State in the area of Rome was undertaken. The aim, in future,…

Ventilation and cooling.

The main source of humidity in office buildings is the human occupant. Moisture is therefore a result of heat transmission from the person to the room air.…
