Author(s) : BASSETT M. R., BECKERT H. M.

Summary

DESCRIBES TRACER GAS METHODS AND EQUIPMENT DEVELOPED TO MEASUR E INFILTRATION AND INTER-ZONE AIR FLOW RATES IN NEW ZEALAND HOUSES. CONCENTRATES ON AN AUTOMATED TRACER GAS DETECTION AND DELIVERY SYSTEM BASED ON A GAS CHROMATOGRAPH AND AN ELECTRON CAPTURE DETECTOR. CONSTANT COMPOSITION AND DECAY MODES OF OPERATION HAVE BEEN AUTOMATED AND ILLUSTRATES THE CONTROL LOOPS FOR BOTH MODES IN A FLOW DIAGRAM. PRESENTS FAVOURABLE COMPARISONS BETWEEN AIR FLOWS MEASURED AND CALCULATED BY VARIOUS METHODS. STATES APASSIVE TECHNIQUE GIVES PLAUSIBLE INFILTRATION RATES.
