Volume content
Twenty three papers from the ninth AIVC Conference, titles as follows: Keynote speech: Air Infiltration and Ventilation; Natural airflows between roof,…
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…
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…
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…
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…
Infiltration heat losses due to heating appliances located within the living space are normally evaluated by reducing the conversion efficiency of the…
This paper is concerned with natural air flows between major construction cavities in New Zealand houses. A two tracer technique was developed to measure…
The paper presents the development of a ventilation scheme for a large bus station and passenger interchange in Bilbao, Spain. The main objective of the…
Traditionally air has been supplied from the ceiling to the occupants below opposing the buoyancy effects due to heat convected from people, lights and…
Mechanical ventilation systems have been adopted in airtight energy- efficient houses in Canada to provide fresh air, remove moisture and indoor pollutants…
Outdoor air pollution can have a bearing on the effectiveness of indoor air and the quality of ventilation. There is a pressing need to reflect on the…
