Author(s) : SEYMOUR M. J.

Type of article: Periodical article

Summary

States that the use of ceiling-mounted air terminal devices for warm air heating of perimeter zones can lead to difficulties in establishing a suitable room microclimate because of downdraughts from the windows. Presents a technique which can be used to assess the conditions where it is possible to provide all the heating by ceiling-mounted terminal devices with no additional under-sill heat source. Considers the effect of both single and double glazed windows on the room microclimate.
