Bibliographic database 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.
This paper reviews the previous attempts to evaluate the Indoor Air Quality (IAQ), investigatespreviously proposed IAQ factors and analyses the evaluation methods of these factors.
The Egyptian community in its path for rapid development is endeavouring to make all necessary andappropriate measures to enhance the efficiency of energy utilization and increase the beneficiation ofthe energy resources.
Specific and effective measures for international issues, such as prevention of global warming, energysaving, reduction of environmental loads, are urgently required.The improvement of the insulation efficiency of the house and the building is dem
Field measurements of the indoor climate have been carried out in 128 lightweight timber-framedetached houses in Finland and in Estonia during the years 2002-2005.
In recent years, in the quest focused about energy conservative building design, as a high efficiencyair conditioning scheme, the variable air volume (VAV) systems owe their growing popularity in heating,ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) app
This paper reports the effects of air quality and thermal environment on motivation and performance forstudents.
The purpose of this paper is to analyze the indoor thermal environment and ventilation efficiencycreated by various heating and ventilation systems using CFD.
This study aimed to investigate volatile organic compound (VOC) emission fluxes from a new air filtermedia and a used one.
Increase in high-rise residential building has changed the envelope of residential building to aluminumcurtain wall which requires the use of the single-sided ventilation to be used instead of the crossventilation.
This study was performed to investigate an influence of ventilation rate change on the level of aerialcontaminants in the confinement pig building.
In buildings growing conditions for mould fungi can occur and cause fungus infestation. Therefore,consequent measures have to be taken to avoid health dangers that come from mould fungi inbuildings.
For reduction of Green house Gas emission, Polymer Electrolyte Membrane Fuel Cells (PEFC) ispromoted by the government in Japan as more efficient co-generation system(CGS).
Since 1970s, kinds of condensing boilers (CB) have been widely applied in HVAC engineering, theirexit flue gas temperature is very lower, even down to about 40?-45?, and their thermal efficiency isvery higher, even up to about 107%~109%, based on
In most conditions, the excess heat of exhaust water discharged from household or publicbathing-rooms is mostly not utilized, which causes a lot heat loss for its higher temperature.
The wind pressure coefficient is the basic driving force of wind-induced natural ventilation.
To examine present situation of energy consumption, an extensive survey was carried out as a projectof Architectural Institute of Japan (AIJ). More than 80 houses that were typical to the present Japanesehousing sector were chosen nationwide.

HEALTHY AND ALLERGIC CHILDREN | 2007 | English
The incidence of asthma and allergy has increased throughout the developed world over the past 30-50years, roughly the same time period that exposure to phthalates has increased.
Conventional method to predict ventilation rate induced by wind is based on the orifice equationassociated with the discharge coefficient and wind pressure coefficient.
Air-conditioning, the powerful indoor-climate control system, is becoming widespread throughout theworld.
