Abstract: | Previous studies have shown that dispersion of contaminant concentrations strongly depends on air inlet types. However, these studies were performed computationally, not experimentally. Thus, the purpose of the current research is to obtain contaminant concentrations in a room, to perform qualitative and quantitative comparison for a wall jet (WJ) air inlet and a ceiling diffuser (CD) air inlet, and to determine more efficient inlet and outlet configuration. |
