Proceedings of a workshop on indoor air quality management

Abstract

Comfort and energy in buildings are subjects closely related in more than one way: - thermal comfort is determined by heating and cooling of the building, - visual comfort is strongly related to daylighting, a technology which importance for energy conservation is more and more recognised, - indoor air quality (IAQ) is closely linked to ventilation (and infiltration), which is perhaps the single biggest energy consumer in buildings in general. It seems, therefore, logical to address R+D on comfort, and in particular comfort related to IAQ, in an energy conservation R+D programme for buildings. The Commission has proposed to do so in her forthcoming Non-nuclear Energy R+D-programme. Past experience has shown that the state of the art and the areas for future research in a certain field can very costeffectively be explored in a workshop with experts in that field. This book presents the proceedings of such a workshop which was hosted by the Swiss Federal Office of Energy. (author) figs., tabs., 31 refs.
