Ventilation and air quality in an office building.

Type of article: Article
Summary
The perfluorocarbon tracer (PFT) technique was used to measure air flow in an air handling unit and exhaust system at the plant room. The differences between air flow rates estimated using the PFT technique and those determined using a pitot-static tube at the air handling unit and exhaust system were 4.7 and -10 %, respectively. The PFT technique was found to be a relatively simple and useful method.
