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…
To clarify the indoor climate in Japanese college classrooms, an air-conditioned, mechanically ventilated classroom of a university was surveyed.…
The need to protect susceptible patients from cross-infection resulting from airborne pathogens is essential in hospitals, especially when patient immunity…
A non isothermal horizontal jet issuing from a round nozzle distanced from a wall is investigated experimentally. We consider four cases: an isothermal jet…
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…
For residential forced air heating and cooling systems conventional thinking is that air supply registers should be located under exterior windows. There…
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…
The provision of good IAQ in schools is important both for the health of students and in maximising educational achievement. It is, however, common for…
The removal efficiency of high efficiency air filters against microbe-carrying particles (MCPs) in the air supply of occupied rooms, such as cleanrooms, was…
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…
Increasing demand for energy efficiency places new requirements on energy use in historic buildings. Efficient energy use is essential if a historic…
The air distribution characteristics formed by an "air curtain" ventilation approach are investigated in detail. The airflow visualization and full-scale…
The potential application of Passive and Hybrid Downdraught Cooling to residential buildings is explored using an experimental facility constructed and…
Among policy makers in many countries there is seemingly an almost unstoppable demand to require homes, schools and offices to be hermetically sealed and…
