The purpose is to present parameters of a new design code, which is intended to control the indoor air environment for sports buildings in China.
Based on requirements of international sports federations the characteristics of indoor airflow of sports buildings in China, include the parameters of indoor air environment of gymnasiums and natatoriums, air velocity, temperature, humidity and fresh air volume. Some illustrations and considerations are shown too.
Compared with the international standards and design guidelines, the Chinese new design code has more detailed parameters for high level sports game.
Not all the indoor air parameters of the code are mentioned in this paper. The designs of sports building are built for high level sports games in recent years of China, the parameters of class A are paid more attention to in the paper.
The contents of paper could be the major designs in heating, ventilation and air conditioning system in sports building.
This paper could be a guide to advice the designing of indoor air environment of sports building, especially for the Beijing Olympic game in 2008, and is useful to help advanced HVAC design and analysis on the similar large space buildings.
