HO-82-06-3 -- The Impact of Ventilation Rates on the Design of Office Buildings
This paper discusses a study that was conducted to determine the impact of different ventilation rates on office building energy use, first cost, and peak electrical demand. Also studied was the effectiveness of a variety of design strategies for mitigating the impacts. The study was conducted by simulating with the DOE-2.1 computer program an energy-efficient office building in five cities.Citation: ASHRAE Transactions, Volume 88, Part 1, Houston, TX
