Effect of positive end-expiratory pressure on additional passive ventilation generated by CPR compressions in a porcine model [PDF]

open access: yesIntensive Care Medicine Experimental, 2021
Background Compressions given during cardiopulmonary resuscitation generate small, ineffective passive ventilations through oscillating waves. Positive end-expiratory pressure increases the volume of these passive ventilations; however, its effect on ...

A review of heat recovery technology for passive ventilation applications [PDF]

open access: yesRenewable and Sustainable Energy Reviews, 2016
A review of current heat recovery devices was undertaken in an attempt to determine the major factors preventing the integration of heat recovery technology into passive ventilation systems. The increase in space heating and cooling demand in recent years combined with statutory requirements to reduce greenhouse gas emissions in the UK requires ...

Using a ventilation controller to optimise residential passive ventilation for energy and indoor air quality

open access: yesBuilding and Environment, 2013
Abstract One way to reduce the energy impact of providing residential ventilation is to use passive and hybrid systems. However, these passive and hybrid (sometimes called mixed-mode) systems must still meet chronic and acute health standards for ventilation. This study uses a computer simulation approach to examine the energy and indoor air quality (

Passive cooling techniques for ventilation: an updated review

open access: yesRenewable Energy and Environmental Sustainability, 2022
The consumption of energy for cooling is an important issue, especially in subtropical climates where there are high temperatures and dry weather in the summer; this climate forces homeowners to use mechanical-electric cooling and ventilation.

Simulation of modern passive stack ventilation in a retrofitted Nordic apartment building [PDF]

open access: yesE3S Web of Conferences, 2022
Some heritage or protected residential buildings in Nordic conditions require retrofit; however, having limited or no access to the reconstruction of the ventilation system; thus, the native natural ventilation system must be preserved.
