Ventilation, Life Safety, and Smoke Extraction in Building

This course underscores the critical role of ventilation in maintaining indoor air quality, particularly in shared spaces like office environments. Using the example of an office space where numerous individuals continuously respire, the constant release of carbon dioxide necessitates a consistent introduction of fresh air to prevent air dilution. The natural ventilation system is explored in-depth, unraveling the mechanisms of the Stack effect and Wind effect. These concepts are not only instrumental in understanding natural ventilation but also serve as the basis for calculating pressure dif…
