This study investigated the effect of absorptive building materials in decreasing indoor concentration of formaldehyde by numerical simulation. Many studies have been reported on this subject, but most were limited to the investigation of one room. In this study, the numerical analysis models were based on the standard house of Architectural Institute of Japan to study the building material in full-size house. The performances of absorptive materials were compared by changing the surface area and position, and the most effective arrangement was studied. [This abstract is not included in the PDF]
