Wind induced fluctuating airflow in buildings.

Airflow through a building has both mean and fluctuating components due to spatial and temporal variations in wind-induced pressures. Most of the existing…

Rao J, Haghighat F
Airflow driven contaminants. Transport through buildings. Annex 20 Subtask 2.5.

Air is the main transport medium for contaminants in buildings. Minimizing source strengths has first priority, second is to control air flow rates, supply…
