Summary

Reports on a laboratory-based study of the performance of a floor-based task ventilation system designed for use in office buildings. The primary objectives were to determine the spatial variability in ventilation and pollutant-removal efficiency in a room ventilated with multiple floor-based task ventilation modules operating at lower flow rates than in previous tests. Compares the rate of ventilation (as indicated by an age of air) at the position of the occupants' breathing height to the rate of ventilation elsewhere in the room, determines if the system results in a characteristic flow pattern such as displacement flow and investigates the efficiency of removing tobacco smoke particles with a task ventilation system. Illustrates the experimental facility and describes instrumentation and test procedures. Supplies the results and analyses them.
