Reasonable determination of indoor ventilation rates are the main content of residential ventilation designs, and can save consumption by air conditioners. Firstly, the energy saving potential of ventilation cooling technology in Guangzhou is analyzed in this paper. The cooling load of a residential building in Guangzhou with different air exchange rates is simulated by the DeST-h after indoor heating quantity of different rooms is set. The energy saving rate is analyzed, the functional relation between energy saving rate of ventilation and air exchange rate is obtained using the linear-regression analysis method. After a comprehensive consideration of various factors, including variation of energy efficiency, room volume, air outlet size, and that the maximum air exchange rates of different rooms are fixed.

The formaldehyde emission from particleboard using different method was investigated in this study. It was found that there is a good correlation between different air exchange rates as they relate to the same product-loading ratio in the large chamber. There was also an indication of a generic correlation between the large chamber and the two-hour desiccator test with a single product designated loading ratio, air exchange rate, and climatic conditions.

Experiments and theoretical analyses are conducted in a residential building in Changzhou to study indoor PM2.5 concentrations by establishing a combined parameter model. An alternative method for predicting the particle deposition rate and penetration coefficient is proposed, and its accuracy is tested and verified by experiments using time-dependent concentrations and air exchange rate measurements. The predicted PM2.5 penetration coefficient increased from 0.70 to 0.88 when the air exchange rates were varied from 0.2 h−1 to 0.5 h−1. In addition, outdoor sources of PM2.5 dominantly contributed approximately 90% to 98% to the indoor concentrations for both mechanically and naturally ventilated structures. Finally, a mathematical model for predicting the indoor concentration is presented using a mass balance equation, which estimates the parameter values in the building. The indoor PM2.5 concentrations ranged from 40 to 46 µg/m3 by using a fresh air system with 82% filtration efficiency, while those by using open windows for natural ventilation ranged from 105 to 118 µg/m3 when the outdoor PM2.5 concentration ranged from 115 to 137 µg/m3. The results of this study can be used to estimate the indoor particle level. Practical application: By applying the ventilation criteria for acceptable indoor air quality in ASHRAE Standard 62.1, the indoor PM2.5 monitoring results show serious pollution in dwellings in 2018. More dwellings are expected to maintain a clean indoor environment in the future. Thus, it is crucial to consider the indoor PM2.5 pollution risk in the building design to prevent the possible consequences of unsafe high indoor concentrations. The use of this prediction model, as discussed in this article, will provide further information on the influence of the particle deposition rate ( K) and penetration coefficient ( P) on indoor PM2.5 concentrations.

To meet the increasingly stringent requirements of standard energy consumption and thus reducing operating costs of buildings, it is necessary to use energy-saving elements of technical equipment and eliminate heat loss through the building envelope. The biggest losses are caused by heat transmission and ventilation in the form of uncontrolled air infiltration through the building envelope. Their elimination can be achieved by improving the thermal technical quantification of building envelope and increase its airtightness. Determination of air permeability as a measure of quality building envelope is possible using the method of measuring devices Blower-Door test. Any defects can be detected by detection tools, then propose a suitable method for their removal and thus prevent unwanted unregulated air infiltration into the interior. On the other hand, are opposed to the health requirements required air exchange in the room, which is a significant reason for the transformation of this mode of ventilation by uncontrolled air infiltration to a controllable ventilation system. The subject of the paper is in-situ measurement of air permeability of specific apartment envelope by Blower-Door test method and comparison the efficacy of the installed controlled ventilation system and hygiene requirements of the ventilation intensity for residential buildings. Laboratory verification of façade ventilation unit parameters in big pressure chamber - measurement of inlet ventilation flap airflows at variable pressure differences. Methodology for the measurement by Blower-Door test method to determine the air permeability of building envelope structures and functionality of controlled ventilation system was based on a series of 10 measurements in 5 regimes. The overall air permeability of the building envelope or its integrated part may be verified using the total air exchange rate n50at 50 Pa pressure difference, determined experimentally according to STN EN 13829. Comparison of measured values with standard values recommended by some European countries with a similar climate with sealed and with unsealed ventilation flaps, which can determine the impact on the overall airtightness of the building envelope. Calculation of total hygiene required air exchange rate of the apartment and its comparison with actual measured values by Blower-Door test method.

In Portugal, residential buildings commonly have their ventilation strategy changed after commissioning. This occurs due to the building managers' willingness to reduce shared costs with the electricity needed for fan operation. However, this option is not technically supported, and the effects of such a strategy on indoor air quality-related to human pollutants are yet to be quantified. CO2 was monitored in 15 bedrooms and air exchange rates were calculated for each room. The air exchange rate values ranged from 0.18 to 0.53 h−1 when mechanical extraction ventilation was off, and from 0.45 to 0.90 h−1 when mechanical extraction ventilation was on, which represents an average increase of 119%. With the current intermittent ventilation strategy, all rooms remain above 1500 ppm for a given percentage of time, and 12 rooms presenting CO2 concentrations above 2000 ppm. Simulations of theoretical CO2 concentrations, for a non-interrupted mechanical ventilation strategy show that no rooms would accumulate CO2 concentrations above 2000 ppm, and only 25% would present CO2 concentrations above 1500 ppm. Pearson correlations between the monitored CO2 and human and spatial factors identified two relevant parameters. Those parameters correspond to ratios between CO2 generation and floor area ([Formula: see text]), and airflow with CO2 generation ([Formula: see text]). The proposed ratios could be used as ways to optimise ventilation costs and indoor air quality.

The energy conservation regulation provides upper limits for the annual primary energy requirements for new buildings and old building renovation. The actions required could accompany a reduction of the air exchange rate and cause a degradation of the indoor air quality. In addition to climate and building specific aspects, the air exchange rate is essentially affected by the residents. Present methods for the estimation of the indoor air quality can only be effected under test conditions, whereby the influence of the residents cannot be considered and so an estimation under daily routine cannot be ensured. In the context of this contribution first steps of a method are presented, that allows an estimation of the progression of the air exchange rate under favourable conditions by using radon as an indicator. Therefore mathematical connections are established that could be affirmed practically in an experimental set-up. So this method could provide a tool that allows the estimation of the progression of the air exchange rate and in a later step the estimation of a correlating progression of air pollutant concentrations without limitations of using the dwelling.

This study aims to examine the effect of exchange rates on the stock index during the Covid-19 pandemic. This research was conducted using secondary data. The population in this study were all stock indices listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange with a sample size of 89 and a total stock index of 34. The study period was 4 months, 17 January 2020 to 20 May 2020. The sample data collection of this study used the purposive method. Sampling with world economic conditions and Indonesia which are weakening due to the Covid-19 pandemic and based on the phenomenon that the exchange rate is experiencing a continuous movement even every year the exchange rate depreciates IDR against the US Dollar. One of the causes of the high fluctuation of the rupiah exchange rate against the dollar came from economic factors such as inflation, the interest rate on Bank Indonesia certificates during the Covid-19 pandemic. This study uses a simple linear regression analysis method using SPSS V.26. The results of simple linear regression analysis show that exchange rates have a negative and significant effect on all stock indices listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange, these results have similarities or differences with the results of research in other emerging market countries.
