The aim of that study is to produce guidance in adequate ventilation in new domestic buildings. The paper gives a description of the development and application of a method for measuring the mean ventilation rate in occupied homes with the measurement of indoor air pollutants. Results are presented.
The aim of that study was to carry out an air quality survey of 10 homes with flueless heaters fuelled by natural gas. Procedure, instrumentation and results are presented along with a comparison of survey date with guidelines.
This paper is a review of almost two decades work on pollution sources in ventilation systems. There is a special emphasis on ventilation filters with reference to the work of other researchers. A view into future research and developement with engineering solutions is also presented.
In this paper, practical recommendations for design and operation of HVAC systems are presented. The result of a proper maintenance will be less pollution and a better indoor environmental quality.
This paper emphasizes on the role of hydroxyl radicals in indoor processes, on chemical reactions occurring on indoor surfaces, and the impact of products of indoor chemistry on building occupants. The products of indoor chemistry can impact comfort and health, but the importance of those effects and the frequency of their occurrence remains to be elucidated.
This paper presents an overview of what is known related to particulate matter indoors. An information for understanding filtration is given along with the way how particles contribute to adverse health effects.
Temperature and humidity changes can affect building materials and the building structure (deformation or breakage). A research was carried out by a holographic interferometer.Thanks to those investigations of temperature and humidity deformation, it has been made possible to give recommendations on maintenance in Russian churches and cathedrals.
Individual differences in preferred air temperature may be as great as 10°C, and preferences for air movement may differ more than four times for the occupants. Personalized ventilation can improve occupants' comfort in so far as thermal discomfort is oft
This paper first describes the analysis results of flow and temperature fields around the human body.Thanks to various examples, it is made clear that CFD has developed into a very effective and powerful tool for analysis and design of healthy indoor environments.
This paper analyses the quality level of CFD, different aspects of the boundary conditions of supply openings are considered allong with the prediction of wall jets by different turbulence models.
