Abstract:

This study contains an analysis of indoor air quality in an office building. The analysis was carried out in real conditions. The purpose of conducted research was to determine façade-mounted ventilation unit capacity to reduce pollution. The air was supply and exhaust from the room w cycles lasting 2 minutes, 4 minutes and 10 minutes. The experimental research and calculation with use of tracer gas were conducted for determination of the air change rate. Carbon dioxide was used as tracer gas. The results of completed studies and calculations have shown that decentralised façade ventilation systems can be used to improve indoor air quality. Cyclic air supply and exhaust guarantees hourly air change rate sufficient to dilute pollution. For the shortest cycle the experimental value of the air change rate equalled 2.3 h-1, and the calculated value equalled 2.2 h-1. For the longest cycle both values equalled 2.7 h-1. The conducted statistical analysis showed that the greatest average feature value of the reduction characteristic (reduction of carbon dioxide concentration) can be expected for the setting characteristic (lasting time of cycle) 10 minutes.
