Monitoring
Tough tests in the field
Measure, study and analyse in order to better understand the natural behaviour of ventilation and to optimise the way our systems are designed: experiment is a key word at Aereco and always will be. By comparing theory and practice, field experiments and studies conducted by Aereco in many countries have increased our knowledge and confirmed the performance of our systems. As follows:
Performance project - Large scale monitoring of Demand Controlled MEV in occupied dwellings, France
The Performance project concerns two new buildings erected in 2007 in Paris and near Lyon (France). It has been the opportunity to measure precisely, in a large set of dwellings, the efficiency of the French standard ventilation system (humidity controlled Mechanical Exhaust Ventilation) in general, of the Aereco DCV system in particular. After an assessment of the performance of the installation (envelop, ductwork and airflows), a total of 30 occupied dwellings has been monitored during two years since November 2007 to measure representative parameters for energy consumption and indoor air quality.
Passive stack ventilation in individual house - Hokkaido, Japan
From October 2000 to September 2001, we have measured several parameters on 2 humidity sensitive PSV extracts grilles in a house in Hokkaido, Japan.
Nangis - HR-VENT, France
For 2 years, pressure, airflow, temperature and humidity level values have been recorded in 55 dwellings equipped with humidity sensitive assisted passive stack ventilation systems. It is one of the most extensive field studies, and it has proved very informative on natural and assisted ventilation.
