Summary

The study applies indoor air quality modelling to investigate the potential advantages and drawbacks of demand-controlled ventilation as an indoor air quality control strategy. It was found that a demand-controlled ventilation strategy consisting of a step controller combined with scheduled 100% outdoor air purges can protect building occupants from exposures to high concentrations of non-occupant-generated pollutants while still providing energy savings.
