2928 — Air Leakage Flow Correlations for Varying House Construction Types
- Comments Off on 2928 — Air Leakage Flow Correlations for Varying House Construction Types
- ASHRAE
Fan pressurization techniques are being employed by an increasingly large number of contractors and auditors to determine the leakage characteristics of structures. In this study, a large data base of flow exponents and flow parameters. The resulting empirical relationships are then used to determine the feasibility of predicting these flow parameters directly from a single pressure difference test. On the basis of these correlations, a new pressure independent tightness parameter is proposed.
