Natural ventilation through large openings: measurement at model scale and envelope flow theory.

Author(s) : ETHERIDGE D. W.

Type of article: Article

Summary

The article provides on overview of the current position regarding the use of wind tunnel modelling and envelope flow theory for determining natural ventilation through large openings. It focuses on the following uses of wind tunnels: direct measurement of time-average ventilation rate; measurement of instantaneous flows in stacks; determination of discharge coefficients for theoretical envelope flow models; and assessment of steady and unsteady envelope flow models.
