4 TYPICAL CONTAMINANTS AND CONTAMINANTS DISTRIBUTION IN VENTILATED ROOMS

Return openingThe location of a return opening may have a very large influence on the concentration distribution, although it only has a small influence on the velocity distribution.

4 TYPICAL CONTAMINANTS AND CONTAMINANTS DISTRIBUTION IN VENTILATED ROOMS

Displacement ventilation and vertical concentration gradientThe idea behind displacement ventilation is to accept a variation in the concentration distribution with a high value below the ceiling and a low value in the occupied zone.

5 THEORY AND DEFINITIONS

Air Change Efficiency

What is the mean age of the air in the room?

Mean age of air in the exhaust 2 x Room mean age of airε a =

The mean age of air in the exhaustis always equal to the nominal time constant nτ

The room mean age of air can not be less than half the nominal time constant!

Thus the air change efficiency < 100 %
