[bldg-sim] Retail Store Infiltration

[David Yuill]

Vaibhav,

 

ASHRAE sponsored a research project on this issue:  RP-763 - "Impact of high
use automatic doors on infiltration" (final report in July 1996).  The
project included a field study of automatic door use in retail stores.  I
believe that the report can be purchased from ASHRAE's online bookstore.  As
Shruti pointed out, this topic is also summarized in the Handbook of
Fundamentals chapter on Ventilation and Infiltration.

 

Regards,

Hello Bldg_simers,

Can anyone point me to any re/sources for diversity factors or schedules of
air infiltration through doors for a large single retail store?

I am developing a DOE2 schedule and would like to have some practical
numbers to start with. If anybody has a method to determine such factors or
any relevant data-sets that they can direct me to that would be great.

Thank you all. Any help will be greatly appreciated.    
Best,
