ShareA critical review of displacement ventilation.
Author(s) : YUAN X., CHEN Q., GLICKSMAN L. R.
Summary
The paper reviews several aspects of the performance of displacement ventilation: temperature distribution, flow distribution, contaminant distribution, comfort, energy and cost analysis, and design guidelines. Ventilation rate, cooling load, heat source, wall characteristics, space height, and diffuser type have major impacts on the performance of displacement ventilation. Some of the impacts can be estimated by simple equations, but many are still unknown. The paper outlines the research needed to develop design guidelines for US buildings.
