Volume content
Several infiltration models treat the complexity of air flows in multizone buildings, but most of them are written as research tools and are not generally…
The effects of operating unvented appl i ances and opening windows on indoor pollutant levels and air exchange rates are being studied under the sponsorship…
Reviews the papers on air infiltration and ventilation research presented at the ASHRAE annual meeting held in Honolulu, Hawaii, in June 1985. The twelve…
For more than two years a series of detailed air infiltration measurements have been conducted over the complete yearly weather cycle on two identical side-…
Several physical phenomena which may contribute to moisture migration from the crawl space to the living spaces in houses are outlined. Results of two…
The multiple tracer gas technique developed at UMIST has been applied to the measurement of roof-space ventilation rates and house to roof-space air…
In this paper ventilation of attics and crawl-spaces is investigated theoretically. Ventilation rates and temperatures of the spaces are calculated by means…
A Compact Equipment for Survey of Air Renewal (CESAR) was developed at the Ecole Polytechnique Federale de Lausanne in Switzerland. Controlled by a…
This paper describes a preliminary investigation of the validity of a means of calculating the ventilation rate of a large enclosure from experimental data…
It is often stated that advanced ventilation or air conditioning is expensive or energy-wasting. There are, however, several examples of highly energy-…
Air infiltration flows into different zones of a building can be measured with the constant concentration technique by injecting a metered amount of tracer…
Ventilation can be advantageous as opposed to adventitious and, with careful building design, can eliminate the need for air conditioning in summer. This…
The various meanings of ventilation efficiency are briefly summarised. The residual life time of a released tracer gas is chosen as the most meaningful and…
