Design and calculation of tunnel ventilation system for Cairo Metro Line 3 (A case study) [PDF]

open access: yesJES: Journal of Engineering Sciences, 2023
One of the problems of tunnels is lacking enough fresh air for passengers inside the subway. Also, as a result of the friction of the train with the railways inside the tunnel, high heat is generated.

Ventilation rates in schools [PDF]

open access: yesBuilding and Environment, 2008
Research shows that poor indoor air quality (IAQ) in school buildings can cause a reduction in the students' performance assessed by short-term computer-based tests: whereas good air quality in classrooms can enhance children's concentration and also teachers' productivity.

Optimal ventilation rate for effective displacement ventilation

open access: yes, 2021
Indoor ventilation is essential for a healthy and comfortable living environment. A key issue is to discharge anthropogenic air contamination such as CO2 gas or, more seriously, airborne respiratory droplets. Here, by employing direct numerical simulations, we study the mechanical displacement ventilation with the realistic range of air changes per ...

Optimization of cool roof and night ventilation in office buildings: A case study in Xiamen, China [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Increasing roof albedo (using a “cool” roof) and night ventilation are passive cooling technologies that can reduce the cooling loads in buildings, but existing studies have not comprehensively explored the potential benefits of integrating these two ...
