Outline of Final Research Achievements

In case of museums in accord with nature, it is required to understand the distribution of concentration of indoor air-born mold delivered from outside the facilities. In this study, the concentration predicting method applying air flow measurement has been evaluated.
The predicting values has been compared with measured values, then there are high correlation between them. It is suggested that this method is possible to grasp quantitative concentration of mold delivered from outside, even though the area which is difficult to measure index species.
