Experimental study on the efficiency of ceiling radiant panels used for air conditioning in hospitals.
La presente memoria descrive i risultati dei primi sei mesi di una ricerca relativa allo studio sperimentale delle prestazioni energetiche, di comfort e di qualità microbiologica dell'aria in degenze ospedaliere climatizzate mediante impianti ad aria primaria e sistemi radianti a soffitto. Lo studio è stato sviluppato grazie alla collaborazione tra le Università di Ferrara, Bologna e Palermo, l'Azienda USL di Bologna e la Proter Imex di San Pietro di Feletto, azienda produttrice di sistemi radianti a soffitto. Le indagini sono in corso a partire dalla stagione estiva del 2007 e sono state condotte installando nell'ambiente campione, ubicato all'interno del reparto Maternità dell'Ospedale Ma…
On the assessment of the environmental comfort in operating theatres
IAQ monitoring in heritage buildings
Heritage buildings often operate in free conditions, as they are not equipped with HVAC systems. This calls for the interventions of proper measurements with the aim of monitoring and controlling indoor physical parameters. As matter of fact, the control of indoor conditions in museums is of paramount importance for the proper preservation of artefacts. Moreover, in such buildings another requirement should be achieved, that is the maintenance of the comfort and safety conditions for visitors. In this work the results of a survey carried out on a hall of a historical palace to estimate the people occupancy by making use concentration of CO(2) are reported.

The preservation of the artistic heritage within the seat of the Chancellorship of the University of Palermo. A proposal on a methodology regarding an environmental investigation according to the Italian Standards
The correct maintenance of artworks of historical and artistic value requires a wide and detailed analysis of all the information relevant for preserving them, such as identification of the main deterioration factors, knowledge of the climatic history of the object, set-up of measuring methods and statistics of the guide parameters, and definition of a set of recommended environmental aspects to be controlled within a stable climate condition linked to the particular kind of object or its surface. In Italy, the basic laws UNI 10829 and UNI 10969 impose a reference methodology for the in-field measurement and data analysis. This paper reports the first results of a measuring campaign, carrie…

Thermo-hygrometric comfort in hospital rooms conditioned by means of a primary air system and ceiling radiant panels
In this work the first results of experimental research are described, which began in the 2006 summer season and is still underway, on the performance of a primary air system integrated with radiant ceiling panels that runs in the hospital rooms in the maternity ward of the Maggiore Hospital of Bologna. The choice of this kind of environment is based the fact that there is more and more attention toward literature on comfort standards that must be guaranteed in the hospital environment, due to the presence of typically weak users, both from the clinical and psychological point of view. The performance of the air conditioning system is taken into account in relation to the conditions of comf…
