A Graphical Tool to Estimate the Air Change Efficiency in Rooms with Heat Recovery Systems [PDF]

open access: yesSustainability, 2020
Indoor air quality in buildings must be guaranteed for the health and comfort of the occupants. In order to assess the ventilation strategy of a considered room, the parameter of the air change efficiency ( ε a ) can be used. The objective of this work is to provide designers with a graphical tool for a reliable estimate of the value of ε ...

A holistic modeling framework for estimating the influence of climate change on indoor air quality

open access: yesIndoor Air, 2022
The IPCC 2021 report predicts rising global temperatures and more frequent extreme weather events in the future, which will have different effects on the regional climate and concentrations of ambient air pollutants. Consequently, changes in heat and mass transfer between the inside and outside of buildings will also have an increasing impact on indoor

The ensemble scenarios projecting runoff changes in large Russian river basins in the 21st century [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the International Association of Hydrological Sciences, 2014
An approach is presented for carrying out a long-term projection of river runoff changes in large Russian river basins in the first three decades of the 21st century. These changes may be caused by climate warming and socio-economic factors. The approach
