For the evaluation of IAQ in ventilated rooms, local mean age of air is an important index.To model the spatial-temporal mass distribution in an imperfectly mixed forced ventilated installation, a data-based mechanistic approach was used. The model proved efficient to determine the age of air in a ventilated place.
