摘要
The location of air intakes is of prime importance in buildings that are situated in close proximity to busy urban roads. If intakes are placed where the concentration of traffic pollution is high then indoor air concentrations can reach similarly high levels. This paper presents the findings from a wind tunnel investigation into the dispersion of a simulated traffic pollutant in a 1:100 scale model. The concentrations at different points on a building in the model are measured and a comparison with full-scale data is made. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
