Airbase

AIRBASE is the Bibliographic Database of the AIVC. It contains publications and abstracts of articles related to energy efficient ventilation. Where possible, sufficient detail is supplied in the bibliographic details for users to trace and order the material via their own libraries. Topics include: ventilation strategies, design and retrofit methods, calculation techniques, standards and regulations, measurement methods, indoor air quality and energy implications etc. Entries are based on articles and reports published in journals, internal publications and research reports, produced both by university departments and by building research institutions throughout the world. AIRBASE has grown and evolved over many years (1979 to present day, over 22000 references and 16000 documents available online). For most of the references, the full document is also available online.

Access to the publications is free of charge.

In this study, energy consumptions associated with the change in outdoor air flow rate areanalyzed based on numerical methods.

The focus on implementing cost efficiency energy efficiency measures will in all probability increase in the future, but it has been shown that trustworthy, site specific information are key features is increasing the adoption of such measures.Thi

The application of a ventilation system in a new building is a multidimensional complex problem that involves both quantifiable and non-quantifiable data e.g.

While being used for years in industrial applications, gaseous contaminant sorption units suchas activated-carbon filters remain marginal in office and residential buildings.
Popescu R.S., Blondeau P., Jouandon E., Colda I.
We have performed studies onboard cruise ship to study the particle number concentrations,the commonly used filters and the utilization of novel filtration technologies.
Väkevä M, Jalonen T., Haapalainen K.
A satisfactory indoor air quality (IAQ) relies, amongst other things, on the availability of clean ventilation air. The outdoor air cleanliness in many urban environments is far from optimum.
Marra J.
This paper reviews indoor air quality needs; then it addresses gas phase air cleaning (a little understood, little used in HVAC, high opportunity technology) - particularly by adsorption.
Spry P.
Three different air purifying devices are compared in terms of their influence on indoor air quality. Two systems use ozonisation and ionisation. One system uses ionisation and special filter devices (manufacturer's specifications).

AIRSECURE project develops a protective solution against airborne threats for airport environment.
Väkevä M., Kulmala I., Kekki A., Laurent K., Madeira J., Arnold P., Brasser P.
This study is in the frame of indoor air quality from the particle pollution point of view and its goal is to determine the particle penetration factor for different common types of leaks which deteriorate the filter capacity of building envelope.
Olea L.L., Limam K., Colda I.
Ozone removal, concentration of ultrafine particles (2 to 64 nm), and VOCs were measured on sooty ventilation filters.
Hyttinen M., Laitinen T., Pasanen P., Kalliokoski P.
This paper compares the difference of HEPA/ULPA filter test standards between America andEurope from test procedures, aerosol types and its size, to air filter classification. Both of them adopt MPPS method as their trend.

Air temperature and velocity are the two main factors affecting the thermal comfort indoors. These two values can be easily obtained using computational fluid dynamic (CFD) simulations together with the turbulence kinetic energy value.
Ruponen M., Tinker J.A.
This paper describes an ongoing demonstration project on the use of personalized ventilationin practice.
Melikov A., Grønbæk H., Nielsen J.B.
Control-on-demand operation of HVAC-systems can reduce energy for heating, cooling, and the drive energy of fans and pumps resulting in better control at a lower operational cost.
Fahlén P., Markusson C., Maripuu M.L.
Ventilation systems with variable airflow rates (VAV) can be used to decrease the amount ofenergy used to heat and cool the supply air and move the supply and exhaust air.
Johansson D.
DCV is one of the main issues in the near future due to the large potential of energy savings,the importance of maintaining a good IAQ with an adequate ventilation rate and the optimisation of system sizing.
Savin J.L., Bernard A.M., Jardinier L.
In a marine temperate climate historic buildings that are equipped with thermostat-controlledheating systems show very low relative humidities (RH) during the heating season.
