Air-flow and radon transport modelling in four large buildings.
Author(s) : FANG J. B., PERSILY A. K.
Summary
Computer simulations of multi-zone air-flow and contaminant transport were performed in 4 large buildings using the program CONTAM88. Air change rates and interzonal air flows were predicted for a range of wind speeds, indoor-outdoor temperature differences and percentages of outdoor air intake in the supply air. Simulations of radon transport were also performed to investigate the effects of indoor-outdoor temperature difference and wind speed on indoor radon concentrations.
