Most <strong>of</strong> the other sources give a lower concentration as guideline value. A relation<br />

between the percentage <strong>of</strong> dissatisfied people <strong>an</strong>d the CO2 level [14] is shown in Figure<br />

It is seen that at a level <strong>of</strong> ��� ��� above the outdoor carbon dioxide concentration<br />

(<strong>of</strong> around ��� ���-��� ���) nearly 20% percent <strong>of</strong> the people are dissatisfied.<br />

This causes no problem as long as only fresh air ventilation is used. With <strong>an</strong><br />

increased use <strong>of</strong> recirculation though, the concentration c<strong>an</strong> increase quite fast. Hence<br />

pure recirculation should be avoided. A minimum fresh air supply rate <strong>of</strong> �� ��<br />

2.3 Power consumption<br />

An HVAC-system has three main power consumers: the cooling unit, the heating unit <strong>an</strong>d<br />

the ventilation. The remaining electric components, like motors <strong>for</strong> the flaps or sensors,
