Abstract

The purpose of this study is to investigate the indoor air quality in elementary schools. The concentrations of Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) and formaldehyde, the air change rate, the air temperature and the relative humidity were measured in three elementary schools in Kagoshima city. The average air change rate measured in summer experiment was high at 18 h^<-l> in classrooms, where the windows and doors were opened. In winter experiment, it was low at h^<-1> because the windows and doors were closed. The VOCs concentrations in the classroom, where the renovation had just comoleted before this study, were relatively high in summer experiment.
