Appendix I 
Page A I- 1 
1. INTRODUCTION 
This appendix presents various aspects of the experimental stages of this project. The main body 
of the appendix is split into four sections: 
Cage Condition: This section presents calibration procedures, experimental data, and 
justification of the sizing of the Simulated Mouse Heater (SMO). 
CO2, NH 3 , H2O, and Heat Generation Measurements at Low and High Humidities: This 
section presents an introduction to direct and indirect calorimetry, calibration procedures, 
measurement procedures, and experimental data, in both tabulated and graphical forms. 
Room Conditions: This section presents the justification of air velocity sampling frequency, and 
justification of steady-state for temperature and air velocity fields. 
Photographs from Experimental Test: This section presents a series of photographs from each 
of the three experimental stages listed above.
