Ventilation Systems

The purpose of the study was to determine which ventilation system centralized or decentralized in viewpoint of economic, energy and comfort is more advantageous in an individual residential house. The relevance of the work is related to the increasing energy efficiency requirements for newly built buildings and the resulting problems of the sick building syndrome due to insufficient ventilation of the rooms. The installation and operation costs of systems were identified. The Life Cycle Analysis (LCA) method was applied to estimate the amount of pollutants and primary energy consumed throughout the lifetime of ventilation systems. Measurements of indoor climate parameters were made; the results compared with the hygiene norms valid in Lithuania. The results of the analysis showed that the decentralized ventilation system is the most advantageous for economic and environmental impacts, but centralized ventilation system ensuring a better indoor climate. Santrauka Tyrimo tikslas buvo nustatyti, kokia vėdinimo sistema – centralizuota ar decentralizuota – ekonominiu, energiniu bei komforto požiūriu yra pranašesnė individualiame gyvenamajame name. Darbo aktualumas susijęs su didėjančiais energinio efektyvumo reikalavimais naujai statomiems pastatams ir iš to kylančiomis ligoto pastato sindromo problemomis dėl nepakankamo patalpų vėdinimo. Darbe buvo nustatyti sistemų įrengimo bei eksploatavimo kaštai, pritaikytas gyvavimo ciklo analizės (GCA) metodas, kuriuo įvertinti susidarančių teršalų bei suvartotos pirminės energijos kiekiai per visą vėdinimo sistemų gyvavimo laiką, atlikti patalpų mikroklimato rodiklių matavimai, o gauti rezultatai palyginti su Lietuvoje galiojančiomis higienos normomis. Išanalizavus rezultatus nustatyta, kad ekonominiu ir poveikio aplinkai požiūriais pranašesnė yra decentralizuota vėdinimo sistema, tačiau geresnį patalpų mikroklimatą užtikrina centralizuota vėdinimo sistema.
