Abstract |
The paper discusses the development of a novel, whole-field, non-intrusive diagnostic technique and associated instrumentation and their application to study full-scale room air flows. The system is designed to study local field quantities in occupied zones (microclimate), ventilation effectiveness, and airborne pollutant transport in the indoor environment. The system can be applied to evaluate the fate and transport of aerosol consumer products in typical commercial and residential settings. The technique and instrumentation have been applied successfully to study localized air flow patterns and particle concentration distribution in the indoor environment. The results of this research can be used to develop more efficacious aerosol consumer products. |
