  • Patent number: 11371736
    Abstract: The framework herein may be called outcome-based ventilation (OBV) for evaluating ventilation rates (VR) in commercial buildings and using a system to make informed control decisions based on the resultant indoor air quality (IAQ) and energy consumption outcomes. A ventilation control system includes a ventilation system that provides air circulation to a building and a controller that controls the ventilation system based on input that include a current ventilation rate. The system also includes an optimization system that drives the controller based on factors like building and pollution transport models, scientific estimates of ventilation impacts on productivity, sick leave, and health, user preference parameters, and weather, pollution, and price forecasts.
