Envelope airtightness is incorporated in the French Energy Performance (EP) Regulation (named “RT”) and is a key factor in the reduction of energy consumption.
Sandrine Charrier, Jocelyne Ponthieux and Alexis Huet
Carbon dioxide has already been recognized as a potential tracer gas for estimating the mean air exchange rates of a room or building.
Dimitrios Kraniotis, Tormod Aurlien and Thomas K. Thiis
New homes currently being built within the UK all incorporate some type of ventilation system, the majority of which are of the fixed mechanical fan type.
Alan Gilbert
An air curtain generated by a jet is used to enhance an exhaust hood’s capture ability in many research studies on local ventilation systems.
Yi Wang, Yang Yang, Yuanyuan Wei, Jiaping Liu and Yanbin Li
This paper presents a study of the potential for the use of natural ventilation systems in Portuguese multi-family residential buildings under winter climatic conditions.
M. Ferreira and H. Corvacho
Focusing on the turbulence in natural ventilation and its impact on both occupant thermal comfort and building energy consumption, this paper presents a review of existing unsteady natural ventilation envelope flow models, as well as other techniq
Ryan D. Meyer and Gang Tan
As a novel air distribution system, diffuse ceiling ventilation combines the suspended acoustic ceiling with ventilation supply.
Chen Zhang, Per Heiselberg and Peter V. Nielsen
Methods of manipulating building envelope wind pressure distributions for application in the natural ventilation of high-rise buildings are presented using computer simulation methods.
Prasad Sivakumar and Thong Q. Dang
The PerFluorocarbon Tracer (PFT) method is a low-cost approach commonly used for measuring air exchange in buildings using tracer gases. It is a specific application of the more general Continuous-Injection, Long-Term Sampling (CILTS) method.
Max H. Sherman, Iain S. Walker and Melissa M. Lunden
Releases of airborne chemicals can rapidly affect wide areas, leading to exposures that may adversely affect public health.
