  • The Effect of Heating Systems on Dust, an Indoor Climate Factor
    Agronomy Research Biosystem Engineering Special Issue 1, 165-174, 2011 The effect of heating systems on dust, an indoor climate factor T. Nõu and V. Viljasoo Institute of Technology, Estonian University of Life Sciences, Kreutzwaldi 64, EE51014 Tartu, Estonia; e-mail: [email protected] Abstract. As people stay approximately 90% of the days indoors, so they are affected by indoor environment. Indoor air quality for humans is even more important than outdoor air quality. The most important factors for shaping indoor climate, for example air temperature and air quality factors, such as various chemical and biological factors of air cleanliness – humidity and dust. One of the working environment risks is dust which can be found everywhere in the air. Dust is a general name for solid particles with diameters smaller than 75 micrometres. Dust in homes, offices, and other human environments contains human skin cells, small amounts of plant pollen, human and animal hair, textile fibres, paper fibres, minerals from outdoor soil, and many other materials which may be found in the local environment. Dust may worsen asthma, hay fever, rhinitis, bronchitis, and allergy. The aim of the research was to improve indoor climatology with different heating systems and to analyse, synthesise, and assess indoor climate parameters. The study methods were based on measurement of dust, temperature, relative humidity, and air velocity. Maximum dust concentration (11.39mg m-3) in the air space was observed in conditions guaranteed by ground source heat pump, as the floor is warm and warm air moves upwards, spinning floor dust into the air.
