| Abstract | The COPE study was designed to investigate the effect of open-plan office design on the indoor environment, and on the occupant satisfaction with that environment. One task of this study is to examine the effect of office design on indoor air quality, ventilation and thermal comfort conditions. As the air diffuser layout is rarely changed, some changes in office design, such as the size and number of workstations and the partition height, may have adverse effects on indoor air quality and ventilation. It is therefore necessary to determine the effects of such design options on the ventilation performance and the indoor air quality conditions within and around individual workstations of open-plan offices. |
