CR19: Indoor Air Quality Design and Control in Low-Energy Residential Buildings - EBC Annex 68 | Subtask 4: Current challenges, selected case studies and innovative solutions covering indoor air quality, ventilation design and control in residences

Submitted by on Tue, 01/05/2021 - 10:05

The objective of Subtask 4 in the IEA EBC Annec 68 was to integrate knowledge and results from remaining Subtasks and present them in the context with current knowledge. The focus of the Subtask 4 was on practitioners dealing with ensuring high Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) in modern low-energy residences, the demands and challenges they meet during daily work. This especially includes architects and ventilation designers, facility managers, property developers and employees of public authorities. This publication is a result of Subtask 4’s work.

Metal Oxide Semiconductor sensors to measure Volatile Organic Compounds for ventilation control

Submitted by on Thu, 10/22/2020 - 10:38

The application of Metal Oxide Semiconductor (MOS) sensors measuring Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC) gains increasing attention in the ventilation community because of their low price and claimed ability to supplement or even substitute CO2 sensors for demand controlled ventilation (DCV). Even though there are many “Indoor Environmental Quality” meters available on the market, in which these sensors are used, the amount of scientific studies focused on their reliability and applicability is still limited.
