1 entilation 1 Introduction - Basic principles ladimír Zmrhal (room no. 814) Dpt. Of Environmental Engineering 1 Principle of ventilation entilation is intentional supply of outdoor air into the buildings (cars, trains ) to dilute and remove indoor air contaminants affect the indoor air quality healthy buildings Good indoor air quality (IAQ) is necessary for maintaining health and high productivity!!! 2 1

2 Principle of ventilation Natural ventilation is driven by pressure differences across the building envelope, caused by wind and air density differences because of temperature differences between indoor and outdoor air the flow of air through open windows, doors, grilles and other planned building envelope penetrations Mechanical (forced) ventilation intentional movement of air into and out of building using mechanical force is driven by fans 3 Terminology Nominal air exchange rate (ventilation rate). I = e r [1/h] Space air exchange rate I S = s = + r s e c [1/h] [m 3 /h] e outdoor air volume air flow rate [m 3 /h] c recirculation air flow rate [m 3 /h] r interior volume of space [m 3 ] 4 2

3 Terminology Outside air fraction X oa.. e e = = + s e c Percent outside air X oa. e = e c [-] [%] X oa = 100 % means no recirculation of return air 5 Terminology Airflows 1 Outside air 2 Supply air 3 Return air 4 Exhaustt air 5 Recirculated air 6 Indoor air 7 Transfer air 8 Mixed air 9 By-pass air 6 3

4 Terminology Air-Handling Unit 7 Heat and Pollutants Sources of heat and pollutants internal - persons - electronic appliances, lighting, technology, electric motors - animals, biological processes in agriculture, external - outdoor air - external climatic conditions 8 4
