What is ventilation?
Definitions covering ventilation and the flow of air into and out of a space include:
• Purpose provided (intentional) ventilation: Ventilation is the process by which ‘clean’ air (normally outdoor air) is intentionally provided to a space and stale air is removed. This may be accomplished by either natural or mechanical means.
• Air infiltration and exfiltration: In addition to intentional ventilation, air inevitably enters a building by the process of ‘air infiltration’. This is the uncontrolled flow of air into a space through adventitious or unintentional gaps and cracks in the building envelope. The corresponding loss of air from an enclosed space is termed ‘exfiltration’.

Types of natural ventilation
Stack effect (buoyancy)• Warm air is lighter (less dense)
than cold air• Warm air rises, cold air falls• Intentional chimneys (stacks)
can create larger differences between top and bottom, increasing the air flow rate
Wind-driven (pressure)• Pressure differences result in
air mass movement• “Packets” of air flow from
higher to lower air pressure regimes

Applications: Supply of outdoor air
• Supply of outdoor air … removal of pollutants– In air changes per hour (AER or h-1) or liters per person per
second (l/s-p) – What happens if you have a very tall space?
• Pollutant concentration = source strength/removal rate– Removal rate includes dilution/exhaust plus deposition on
surfaces or chemical interactions/transformation– Chemicals: source strength expressed as mg of pollutant / m2-h
or mg/h– Dilution/exhaust rate expressed as dilution ventilation (air
changes per hour)– Deposition: gcm-1s-1

Applications: Convective cooling
• convection /con·vec·tion/ (kon-vek´shun) the act of conveying or transmission, specifically transmission of heat in a liquid or gas by bulk movement of heated particles to a cooler area.
• Air flow person can be caused by the higher temperature of the person’s skin relative to the air around it, giving rise to an air flowknown as the “thermal plume,” air movement predominantly in an upward direction.
• Or, it may be caused by forced air movement, as from a fan or wind.

22
Applications: Physiological cooling
“Ectothermic cooling”• Vaporization:
– Getting wet in a river, lake or sea.• Convection:
– Entering a cold water or air current.– Building a structure that allows natural or generated air flow for cooling.
• Conduction:– Lie on cold ground.– Staying wet in a river, lake or sea.– Covering in cool mud.
• Radiation:– Find shade.– Enter a cave or hole in the ground shaped for radiating heat (Black box
effect).– Expand folds of skin.– Expose skin surfaces.

Natural Ventilation Issues
• Weather-dependence: wind, temperature, humidity
• Outdoor air quality• Immune compromised patients• Building configuration (plan, section)• Management of openings• Measurement of ventilation rate(s)
51
Outdoor air quality becomes indoor air quality at high ventilation rates
• The higher the outdoor air ventilation rate, the higher the indoor/outdoor pollutant concentration
• The effect of the building on reducing outdoor pollutants varies by pollutant and by building ventilation pathways
• Where outdoor air pollution is high, natural ventilation must be considered not only as a means for reducing concentrations from indoor sources (infectious airborne agents as well as chemicals emitted indoors), but also as a means of delivering un-cleaned outdoor air.
• With highly susceptible health care facility occupant populations, consideration must be given to the effects of outdoor pollutants on the occupants’ health.

Wind: direction and velocity are neither stable nor consistent
• Selected data from almost any city will show daily cycles and variations in wind direction and velocity
• Seasonal variations are more reliable, but daily variations are still the rule rather than the exception
• Even with many predictable situations, wind direction will change over the diurnal cycle – California coast is an example.
• Relying on wind alone can result in both under and over-ventilation relative to a design objective.
