This paper presents the results of a field study concerning indoor conditions in an office space in Grieskirchen, Upper Austria. The office is equipped with a Displacement Ventilation system (DV) as well as Personalized Ventilation (PV). The configuration of the indoor climate control system in this office allows for the performance evaluation of the ventilation systems through different methods. The monitored data and short-term user surveys provide a basis to document the indoor conditions and their implications for the occupants. The results suggest that the combined operation of the above mentioned systems provide in general acceptable indoor environmental conditions. The experiences gained in this study point to the importance of continuous and comprehensive monitoring of indoor conditions, systems states, and occupants' feed-back toward systematic performance evaluation of indoor environmental control systems and methods.
