A Canadian provincial government has initiated a collaboration with the Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) team of the National Research Council of Canada (NRC) to…
This research aims to evaluate ventilation performance on airborne transmission in buildings, by analyzing the effect of different ventilation…
The COVID-19 pandemic has raised concerns about indoor ventilation conditions worldwide. Monitoring CO2 concentrations in rooms has been widely used, but…
An approach has previously been developed to estimate space-specific carbon dioxide (CO2) levels that can serve as metrics for the adequacy of outdoor…
Low energy buildings are highly insulated and airtight and therefore subject to overheating risks, where Ventilative Cooling (VC) could be a relevant…
To achieve future-proof buildings, it is crucial to design buildings and systems that can withstand to shocks (like heat waves and power outages) and reduce…
Overheating in school buildings is likely to lead to a negative learning performance experience for occupants in these settings. In Ireland, school…
A Danish office building designed with a hybrid ventilation system has been compared to a full mechanical ventilation system in the same building. The…
Embedding robust yet accessible frameworks to evaluate ventilative cooling potential during the early/concept design stages for building practitioners can…
The growing challenges of climate change, urbanization, and increased energy demand have underscored the critical need for sustainable and resilient cooling…
Smart ventilation which provides air renewal thanks to its variable airflows adjusted on the needs can improve both indoor air quality (IAQ) and energy…
Metal Oxide Semiconductor (MOS) sensors measuring Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC) seem to be an obvious step towards broadly available Demand Controlled…
Chile has 1,626 social housing complexes with a total of 350,880 dwellings. Several studies have demonstrated a low thermal performance and high air…
Mass gathering events were closed in 2020 to reduce the spread of SARS-CoV-2. These events included music concerts, theatre shows, and sports matches. It is…
With many existing Austrian school buildings to be renovated in the coming years, there are debates between stakeholders, about which ventilation strategy…
This paper presents the results of an Indoor Environment Quality (IEQ) monitoring study (including relative humidity, temperature and IAQ in terms of indoor…
The presentation provides a brief overview of the current situation and a roadmap for decarbonizing the building stock under the context of EU directives.…
This study examines the impact of heatwaves on indoor operative temperatures of dwellings in Pamplona (north of Spain) and presents a comparative analysis…
In France, in Residential buildings, since 1982 the ventilation regulation imposes air flow rate to be continuously extracted from every room with humidity…
While a growing body of scientific literature describes the population health impacts of fossil fuel production and burning via climate and air pollution…
