The Eighth AIVC Conference - summing up.

Summary of papers in the Proceedings of the Eighth AIVC Conference. Headings include measurement techniques, calculation techniques, design (control of the internal environment) and the positive aspects of ventilation and infiltration.

Data needs for the purpose of air infiltration computer code validation.

A simplified model of air infiltration has been developed at Lawrence Berkeley Laboratory, in order to expand the use of air flow calculation techniques outside the field of research. The validity of the programme must be checked. Benefit has been gained from work dedicated to the same problem in the field of building thermal analysis. Following this idea, a detailed validation methodology is proposed. Progression in the complexity of the modelled structures, use of high accuracy data are sine qua non to this task.
