摘要：Building air leakage can contribute significantly to the energy consumption of a building. This paper presents the airtightness performance of a campus building located in Ontario, Canada. The air leakage rate through the building envelope was measured under stilted depressurization conditions following the ASTM E-779 standardized test method. With this test derived empirical leakage flow co-efficient and leakage flow exponent measures, the air infiltration rate for the building under varying wind and outside temperature conditions was calculated using two different single zone air infiltration models – the Lawrence Berkeley Laboratory model and the Alberta Air Infiltration model thus also allowing for a comparison of the results between the two mathematical models .
