STATES THE DANISH BUILDING RESEARCH INSTITUTE HAS EXAMINED AND TESTED A NEW TRACER GAS MEASUREMENT METHOD WHICH THEORETICALLY MAKES POSSIBLE THE STRAIGHTFORWARD MEASUREMENT OF BOTH THE TOTAL, SPECIFIC OUTDOOR AIR SUPPLY TO A BUILDING AND TO ROOMS OR ZONES IN THE BUILDING, AS WELL AS THE EXCHANGE OF AIR BETWEEN THEM. THE METHOD IS BASED ON PASSIVE EMISSION AND COLLECTION OF A NUMBER OF DIFFERENT TRACER GASES IN THE FIELD AND SUBSEQUENT GAS CHROMATOGRPCLH EXAMINATION OF THE CALCULATION BASIS OF THE METHOD SHOWS THAT IT HAS A SYSTEMATIC ERROR, ALTHOUGH THIS CAN APPA-RENTLY BE ALLOWED FOR.
