Summary

Recently well-insulated and highly-airtight houses are increasing in Japan. Those houses have some problems of air quality because of formaldehyde from construction materials. Ventilation systems can solve these problems. The authors have developed a simulation program for designing building elements, equipment elements to strike a balance between comfortable temperature and humidity, good air quality and energy conservation. The effects of some ventilation systems in multiple dwellings are revealed by the simulation program developed.
