Room air and contaminant distribution in mixing ventilation.

Summary

The paper presents the results of a series of laboratory measurements of room air and contaminant distribution in a full-scale test room with mixing ventilation. The measurements were performed to investigate how parameters such as air change rate, supply air temperature, contaminant source location, and contaminant density would influence the distribution of room air and contaminants and to what extent complete mixing was achievable. The results are also useful for validation of computational fluid dynamics calculations of both room air and contaminant distribution.
