The natural ventilation of unheated ‘closed rooms’ [PDF]
Epidemiology and Infection, 1946 The experimental method for, and analysis of, more than 300 determinations of air influx rates into two unheated ‘closed rooms’ of opposite aspects each fitted (a) with wall grating, or (b) with flue, are described. The average relative efficacy for all observed wind velocities of (a) of 50 sq.in.
