...Michael C. Swinton; J.T. Reardon The energy savings associated with the air-tightening of new houses equipped with exhaust-only ventilation systems are evaluated in this paper. Potential savings are identified that would result from reducing the leakage area of the envelopes of houses. For most...

... areas. There was little difference between the two groups in overall health. These findings have implications for building intolerance, and larger studies are needed to investigate the role of ventilation system design,especially as it relates to the potential for contamination, in the cause...

...Xiaoxiong Yuan; Qingyan Chen; Alfred Moser; Peter Suter The designers of ventilation systems need to predict the air flow patterns in order to optimize design and to ensure a healthy interior. Numerical simulation is a powerful tool to obtain the air flow patterns. In the present study, a computer...

...Nick Parine Historically, the perception of human odour (bioeffluent) has been used to set standards for ventilation rates in buildings. Over the last 10 years, one of the conclusions reached from this work is that odour production by building materials and its services may be as important...

... of controls elsewhere. Indoor air standards have been developed for ventilation in public buildings commensurate with U.S. standards. A recommended goal for formaldehyde exposure levels has been set at 0.1 ppm and a remedial action level for radon at 200 Bq/m^3. Nitrogen dioxide, particulates and volatile...
