Abstract

In order to improve indoor air quality and reduce energy consumption of residential building, the paper focuses on measuring the concentration of CO2 and calculating the air change rate with different ventilation time to evaluate the performance of natural ventilation. Results show that it is difficult to meet the requirement of IAQ when the window is closed, unless open the window at a suitable period. Comparison of the CO2 concentration and indoor air temperature under different conditions shows that the concentration of CO2 is greatly influenced by air change rate.
