The date of the conference "IAQ 2020: Indoor Environmental Quality Performance Approaches Transitioning from IAQ to IEQ”, organized by ASHRAE and AIVC, is approaching. The conference will be held on 4-6 May 2022 in Athens, Greece at the Wyndham Grand Athens as an in-person conference with a hybrid track.

Energy Efficiency and Indoor Climate in Buildings has just been released.
This is the uncontrolled flow of air into a space through adventitious or unintentional gaps and cracks in the building envelope. The corresponding loss of air from an enclosed space is termed 'exfiltration'. The rate of air infiltration is dependent on the porosity of the building shell and the magnitude of the natural driving forces of wind and temperature.
Definitions covering ventilation and the flow of air into and out of a space include:
Purpose provided (intentional) ventilation: Ventilation is the process by which ‘clean’ air (normally outdoor air) is intentionally provided to a space and stale air is removed. This may be accomplished by either natural or mechanical means.
