Displacement ventilation: new air conditioning technology.

Diffusion d'air par déplacement : technique innovante de conditionnement d'air.

Author(s) : CETIAT, EDF, BERNARD A. M.

Type of monograph: Book, Guide/Handbook

Summary

Displacement ventilation is becoming increasingly popular in Europe. During the last 20 years, there has been a great deal of research and although research publications are numerous, the information available to the practitioner is limited. This book, prepared by Cetiat and EDF, bridges the gap between research and practice, and gives down-to-earth guidelines for practical use. Extract from the table of contents: two major types of diffusion: mixture and displacement; displacement ventilation (diffusion principle; non-homogeneity of temperatures and pollutants; air-flow temperatures and recommended gradients; ventilation efficiency and indoor air quality); description of a plant (various forms of diffusers; free-cooling); sizing of a plant (comfort parameters; numerical simulation); implementation (regulation); strengths and constraints; areas of application (under-floor ventilation in auditoriums; air displacement in catering premises, in a casino/gaming room, and in industry).
