Andrea Cavicchioli et al., « Characterisaton of the indoor microclimate within the historic archives of a cultural institution in the megacity of São Paulo (Brazil) in the perspective of preventive conservation. », HAL-SHS : géographie, ID : 10670/1.1y2zye
One of the reasons that explains the importance of developing research in the area of indoormicroclimate is the concern with the conservation of cultural artefacts. This work presents and discussesthe indoor microclimate of the archives of a cultural organisation located in the megacity of São Paulo,Brazil, as well as its links with the local outdoor climate. The results show that there are significantdifferences between the two monitored areas. The archive where a basic air-conditioning system is installedexhibits effective control on the temperature but with negative impacts on relative humidity, mainly interms of short-term stability. The archive with no active control on T and RH displays a better performancewith potentials for preventive conservation strategies aligned with the current trends toward sustainability.
