Abstract

Indoor air quality (IAQ) has long been a community concern since many individuals spend a large portion of their time indoors. The research objective is to investigate the IAQ in three offices located in Baghdad. This study presents and investigates the concentration of carbon dioxide (CO2) and respirable particulate matter (PM) with different diameters (2.5 mm, and 10 mm) also; this study investigates indoor air temperature and relative humidity. The measurement of CO2 concentration, indoor air temperature, and relative humidity was conducted in all offices, while the measurement of PM concentration was conducted in two offices. The measurement period was four hours (9.00 to 13.00). The results showed that the average air temperature, CO2, PM2.5, PM10, and TSP were within the recommended values by world heath organization (WHO) and ASHRAE. However, the average values of indoor air relative humidity in all offices were less than the recommended values by ASHRAE.

巴格达几个办公室室内空气质量调查-个案研究

室内空气质量(IAQ)长期以来一直是社会关注的问题，因为许多人在室内度过了大部分时间。研究目的是调查设在巴格达的三个办事处的室内空气质量。本研究还介绍和调查了不同直径(2.5 mm和10 mm)的二氧化碳(CO2)和可吸入颗粒物(PM)的浓度;本研究考察了室内空气温度和相对湿度。CO2浓度、室内空气温度和相对湿度的测量在所有办公室进行，PM浓度的测量在两个办公室进行。测量时间为4小时(9点至13点)。结果表明，北京市平均气温、CO2、PM2.5、PM10和TSP均在世界卫生组织(WHO)和ASHRAE推荐值范围内。然而，所有办公室的室内空气相对湿度平均值均低于ASHRAE的推荐值。
