Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Exterior doors and entrances of nonresidential buildings are major sources of energy losses caused by air infiltration or exfiltration due to the frequent use of doors and the pressure difference across each door, created by the wind, stack effect, or ventilation systems. Information regarding the air leakage characteristics of manually or power-operated revolving doors is available in the American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air-Conditioning Engineers, Inc. (ASHRAE) publications, based on studies carried out in the 1950s and 1960s. This paper presents results from a recent study carried out to investigate the air leakage characteristics of four revolving doors of a large institutional building in Montreal. These results are compared with data available in ASHRAE publications, as well as with the specifications of the Model National Energy Code of Canada for Buildings and ASHRAE Standard 90.1. The impact of the quality of seals on the annual heating costs is also evaluated.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
