Summary:Demand controlled ventilation (DCV) is an important opportunity to reduce energy requirement especially in presence of variable occupancy. An evaluation of the possible amount of the energy savings consequent this more flexible control strategy are here presented in a real application case. This refers to the case of an ancient building in Venice. A part of this building was recently transformed in a modern university library. By recording all the measured data from the supervisory system an analysis of the annual performance of the DCV system was carried on. The investigation has pointed out the possibility of remarkable energy savings without compromising internal comfort conditions.
