Details on “Air Pollution Method 2” (Project Level)
Information on the Air Pollution Method 2 section of the Ventilation module in LINEAR Building.
In this area, you define the global default settings for determining the required air volumes for rooms in non-residential buildings based on the calculation method DIN EN 16798-1 Air Pollution, Method 2. In this section you will also find an overview of all rooms assigned to this calculation method, including their settings. You can edit the room settings in the overview on a room-by-room and multi-room basis.
You are here
General
Category: Drop-down list for selecting the category of expectations for the quality of the indoor climate in accordance with DIN EN 15251. The higher the expectations, the greater the volume flow rates required to ensure the desired indoor climate quality. Standard default values are provided for each of the categories, but you can adjust these as you wish.
Ventilation Efficiency
Defines the global default setting for the ventilation efficiency of the air conduction system. This parameter provides information on the efficiency of material load dissipation.
Room Settings
This table shows all rooms to which the calculation basis DIN EN 16798-1 Air Pollution, Method 1 is assigned and allows you to edit the room settings.
By clicking you have the possibility to copy the contents of the table with or without column heading and paste it into Excel.
If you have selected individual rows or cells, you can copy the selected data with the key combinations Ctrl+C (with column heading) or Ctrl+Shift+C (without column heading) and paste it into Excel, for example.
Column | Description |
---|---|
et | Defines which rooms are edited together. Tick the rows of the rooms that you want to edit together and then change the desired parameters for one of the rooms. Clicking on the column header et activates or deactivates all rows. |
Location | Shows the name and location of the room in the Building Structure. You can change the name if required. |
Room Area | Displays the area of the room calculated from the clear internal dimensions. |
Room Volume | Displays the volume of the room calculated from the clear internal dimensions. |
Category | Defines the category for the quality of the indoor climate in accordance with DIN EN 15251. Settings that originate from the global default setting are marked with the addition From Project Setting:. |
Ventilation Efficiency | Determines the ventilation efficiency of the air conduction system. |
Contaminations | Displays the required total outdoor air volume flow rates of the rooms that are required to comply with the respective limit values. : Opens the dialog Contaminations for DIN EN 16798-1, Method 2, in which you define and edit the contamination of the rooms. |
Vges | Displays the required total volume flow rate of the room. This value is transferred to the Air Volumes area as the result of the air volume determination. |
