order to compensate for the increase in environmental temperature to keep thermal sensation norm
within permitted range. Every increase of 1oC in temperature requires an increase of 0.5-1m/s in wind
speed, but the total increase should not exceed 1.5 m/s for civil houses and 2.5 m/s for industrial
houses.

4.1.4 Temperature, relative humidity, wind speed and cleaniness of the atmosphrere in breeding
facilities and agricultural works as well as in preservation warehouses of agricultural products shall
be taken according to the technological and constructional design standards for the types of
construction mentioned above.

4.2 Calculation parameters of outdoor air

4.2.1 Calculation parameters of outdoor air (hereinafter referred to as outdoor calculation parameters)
used for designing natural and mechanical ventilation is the medium of the highest temperatures of
the hottest month (for summer) or the medium of the lowest temperatures of the coldest month (for
winter) in a year (see QCXDVN 02:2008/BXD, Annex to Chapter 2, Table 2.3 and Table 2.4)

4.2.2 Outdoor calculation parameters for designing air conditioning must be chosen according to the
number of hour m, measured in hours per year, the non-assurance of indoor hydrothermal conditions
is allowed or the assurance coefficient Kbđ shall be used.

Calculation parameters for designing air conditioning are classified into three grades: I, II and III.

-Grade I with number of hour allowing the non-assurance of indoor hydrothermal conditions is m =
35 h/year, corresponding to assurance coefficient Kbđ = 0.996 – used for air conditioning systems in
constructions of special important functions;

- Grade II with number of hour allowing the non-assurance of indoor hydrothermal conditions is m =
150 ÷ 200 h/year , corresponding to assurance coefficient Kbđ = 0.983 ÷ 0.977 – used for air
conditioning systems in charge of ensuring thermal confortable conditions and technological
conditions in constructions of regular functions such as offices, stores, industrial buildings, art-
recreation centres.

- Grade III with number of hour allowing the non-assurance of indoor hydrothermal conditions is m =
350 ÷ 400 h/year , corresponding to assurance coefficient Kbđ = 0.960 ÷ 0.954 – used for air
conditioning systems in industrial constructions that do not have high requirements on hydrothermal
conditions and when the indoor calculation parameters can not be assured by regular mechanical or
natural ventilation without hydrothermal treatment.

Outdoor calculation parameters used for designing iar conditioning according to the number of hour
that allow the non-assurance of indoor hydrothermal conditions (m) – see Annex B or can refer to the
