Carbon monoxide (CO) concentration data from 1999-2006, monitored at 5 different pollution stations in a high-rise mega city (Hong Kong), were collected and investigated.
Zhiwen Luo, Yuguo Li and Wei-Zhen Lu
To clarify the indoor climate in Japanese college classrooms, an air-conditioned, mechanically ventilated classroom of a university was surveyed.
Shuzhao Liu, Hiroshi Yoshino and Akashi Mochida
The need to protect susceptible patients from cross-infection resulting from airborne pathogens is essential in hospitals, especially when patient immunity is either suppressed due to medical procedures or compromised by ailment.
Z.A. Adamu, M.J. Cook and A.D.F. Price
A non isothermal horizontal jet issuing from a round nozzle distanced from a wall is investigated experimentally.
Frédéric Kuznik, Gilles Rusaouen and Jean Brau
The temperature of human skin is determined by the human thermoregulatory system which reacts to changes in the thermal balance between a human body and the environment.
Anna Bogdan
For residential forced air heating and cooling systems conventional thinking is that air supply registers should be located under exterior windows.
Boualem Ouazia, Iain Macdonald, Alexandra Thompson and Daniel Booth
The scope of the research described in this paper is to develop, evaluate and propose a new empirical index, the so-called Index of Workplace Comfort (IWC), which quantifies the overall comfort sensation of a user in an office building.
Panagiotis Kosmopoulos, Dimitrios Galanos, Dimitrios Anastaselos and Agis M. Papadopoulos
The provision of good IAQ in schools is important both for the health of students and in maximising educational achievement.
Benjamin M. Jones and Ray Kirby
The removal efficiency of high efficiency air filters against microbe-carrying particles (MCPs) in the air supply of occupied rooms, such as cleanrooms, was determined.
W Whyte, G Green and WM Whyte
It is widely recognised that the carbon dioxide (CO2) concentration level inside a building is a reflection of the indoor air quality in that building. In most buildings, occupants are a major source of CO2 through exhalation.
Norhayati Mahyuddin and Hazim B Awbi
Increasing demand for energy efficiency places new requirements on energy use in historic buildings.
P. Rohdin, M. Dalewski and B. Moshfegh
The air distribution characteristics formed by an "air curtain" ventilation approach are investigated in detail. The airflow visualization and full-scale experimental results of air distribution in an occupied zone are reported in this paper.
Angui Li, Haiguo Yin and Wangda Zhang
The potential application of Passive and Hybrid Downdraught Cooling to residential buildings is explored using an experimental facility constructed and tested in Seville, Spain.
J.M. Salmerón, S. Álvarez, J. Sánchez, B. Ford and M. Gillott
Among policy makers in many countries there is seemingly an almost unstoppable demand to require homes, schools and offices to be hermetically sealed and mechanically ventilated. The reasoning is one of control.
