Summary
After artistic comments on the frescoes, the article describes the air-conditioning system. Its main features are: temperature, 20-25 deg C; relative humidity near the frescoes: 55% (more or less 5%); 92 sensors inside the chapel make it possible to control air and wall surface temperatures ; two computers are used in the control system; two air circuits are created inside the chapel: one with low velocity in contact with the frescoes, another with higher velocity for the comfort of visitors (air shower). A general diagram of the plant and its control is given. J.G.
