The 9th AIVC Conference - Effective ventilation, was held in Gent, Belgium, 12-15 September 1988.
Contains 44 papers.
Volume content
Twenty three papers from the ninth AIVC Conference, titles as follows: Keynote speech: Air Infiltration and Ventilation; Natural airflows between roof,…
Experimental investigations concerning energy savings achieved in buildings with passive solar components (e.g. large south-front windows, sunspaces or…
The National Institute of Standards and Technology (formerly the National Bureau of Standards) has through an interagency agreement with the Public Building…
Numerical modelling is performed for three-dimensional turbulent buoyant flows emerging from an air diffuser in an air-conditioned, ventilated room. The…
More than two months of detailed test data have been gathered using modified constant concentration tracer gas techniques for a six-storey, 60 apartment,…
Air quality and draught avoidance are fairly important to office staff; consequently, the occupant's perspective should be taken into account when assessing…
The ventilation and leakage characteristics of suspended floors are not well documented. As part of a larger study of air flows in housing, the air flow…
In this paper a short term testing methodology is developed to evaluate the performance of ventilation systems with respect to control of indoor air…
The Dutch Standard NEN 1087 "Ventilation of dwellings": Requirements (1) is at this moment under review. A requirement can be found about the quality of air…
This paper describes a two-dimensional numerical study, by finite-volume method of buoyancy-driven flow in a half-scale model of a stairwell. The stairwell…
The ventilation of a test room (LxWxH = 5.4x3.6x2.4 m) with a wall mounted heat source is investigated for two different air terminal devices. The…
In the past few years, research efforts have been made to acquire accurate knowledge about infiltration and ventilation in multi-zone buildings. By this way…
The specific value of different flows resulting from air exchanges between rooms or with the outside is not always important. An extensive model is not…
The ventilation performance of a proposed naturally-ventilated court-room was predicted and assessed on a statistical basis with regard to the local…
The project is aimed to develop the quantitative method of visualization of the air steams in application to the indoor problems of heauilg , ventilating…
Air leakage through the building envelope is of great importance for the energy use of a building. However, from an indoor air quality standpoint, the size…
An experimental study in reduced scale model for ventilation inside a sheep-fold has been studied. The ventilating system consist of two slots in opposite…
In the framework of a project of the International Energy Agency (IEA) , IEA-Annex XVIII - Demand Controlled Ventilating (DCV) Systems, which started in…
The paper describes measuring results of the air movement from three different types of diffusers for displacement ventilation. Two of the diffusers are…
