Summary
The paper presents a dynamic method to estimate the actual occupancy in indoor space by measuring the carbon dioxide concentration of return air and outdoor air-flow rate. The accuracy and response speed are tested and compared with the steady-state estimating method under various occupancy profiles. An on-line outdoor air control strategy using the dynamic estimating method and the validation of the method are presented. The indoor air quality and energy performance of ventilation using these strategies are evaluated under various indoor occupancy and outdoor weather conditions.
