  • From Wikipedia, the Free Encyclopediathis Article Is About
    HVAC From Wikipedia, the free encyclopediaThis article is about heating, ventilation, and air conditioning; HVAC may also stand for high-voltage alternating current."Climate control" redirects here. For efforts to reduce changes to Earth's climate, see Climate change mitigation. Rooftop HVAC unit with view of fresh air intake vent. Ventilation duct with outlet vent. These are installed throughout a building to move air in or out of a room. HVAC (heating, ventilating, and air conditioning; also heating, ventilation, and air conditioning)[1] is the technology of indoor and vehicular environmental comfort. Its goal is to provide thermal comfort and acceptable indoor air quality. HVAC system design is a subdiscipline of mechanical engineering, based on the principles of thermodynamics, fluid mechanics, and heat transfer. Refrigeration is sometimes added to the field's abbreviation as HVAC&R or HVACR, or ventilating is dropped as in HACR (such as the designation of HACR-rated circuit breakers). HVAC is important in the design of medium to large industrial and office buildings such as skyscrapers and in marine environments such as aquariums, where safe and healthy building conditions are regulated with respect to temperature and humidity, using fresh air from outdoors. Ventilating or Ventilation (the V in HVAC) is the process of "changing" or replacing air in any space to provide high indoor air quality which involves temperature control, oxygen replenishment, and removal of moisture, odors, smoke, heat, dust, airborne bacteria, and carbon dioxide. Ventilation removes unpleasant smells and excessive moisture, introduces outside air, keeps interior building air circulating, and prevents stagnation of the interior air.

  • Improving Ventilation and Indoor Air Quality During Wildfire Smoke Events Recommendations for Schools and Buildings with Mechanical Ventilation
    Improving Ventilation and Indoor Air Quality during Wildfire Smoke Events Recommendations for Schools and Buildings with Mechanical Ventilation Overview • Smoke is a complex mixture of carbon dioxide (CO2), water vapor, carbon monoxide (CO), hydrocarbons, other organic chemicals, nitrogen oxides (NOX), trace minerals, and particulate matter. o Particulate matter consists of solid particles and liquid droplets suspended in the air. Particles with diameters less than 10 microns (PM10) are upper respiratory tract and eye irritants. o Smaller particles (PM2.5) are the greatest health concern – they can be inhaled deep into the lungs, and can affect respiratory and heart health. o Carbon monoxide, a colorless, odorless gas produced by incomplete combustion, is a particular health concern and levels are highest during the smoldering stages of a fire. • Outdoor (ambient) air pollutants, including smoke, enter and leave buildings in three primary ways: 1. Mechanical ventilation systems, which actively draw in outdoor air through intake vents and distribute it throughout the building. 2. Natural ventilation (opening of doors or windows). 3. Infiltration, the passive entry of unfiltered outdoor air through small cracks and gaps in the building shell. • Tightly closed buildings reduce exposure to outdoor air pollution. Upgrading the filter efficiency of the heating, ventilating, and air-conditioning (HVAC) system and changing filters frequently during smoke events greatly improves indoor air quality. Supplementing with HEPA filters, particularly those with activated charcoal or other adsorbents, improves air quality even more. • During long-term smoke events, take advantage of periods of improved air quality (such as during rain or shifts in wind) to use natural ventilation to flush-out the building.

  • Effectiveness of Portable Air Cleaners in Particulate Contaminant Removal
    10710 EFFECTIVENESS OF PORTABLE AIR CLEANERS IN PARTICULATE CONTAMINANT REMOVAL P. Gricar, P. Novak University of Ljubljana, Faculty of Mechanical Engineering 5 Askerceva 6, 1000 Ljubljana, Slovenia ABSTRACT The primary objective of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of different commercially available portable indoor air cleaning technologies in removing dust particulates from the indoor air. Suspended respirable particles are of great concern and often identified as important source of indoor air quality problems. The concentrations of particulate and gaseous pollutants encountered in the indoor environment frequently exceed those found outdoors by factor ranging from 2 to 20. Indoor particulates and some contaminants are found to cause or worsen respiratory ailments like asthma and allergies. Commercially available air cleaners with different sets of air filters were tested in a test chamber according to modified ANSI/AHAM AC-I 1988. The number of airborne particles v ithin a set of fixed size ranges was measured with a laser light scattering instrument. The purpose of the study was to test how effectively different sets of filters remove the particulates from the air. The types of filters used were fibrous filters for coarse particles, electrostatic precipitators, electronic filters and HEPA tilter. Some devices have incorporated the use of activated charcoal to remove gaseous contaminants from the air but these contaminants were not evaluated in this study. It was seen that different air cleaners perform very different in terms of their efficiency. What determines the overall rate of removal or the space cleaning efficiency is the product of the air flow rate through the air cleaner and filter efficiency.

  • OHA 3725 R COVID 19 Public Health Recommendations: Indoor Air
    OFFICE OF THE DIRECTOR Kate Brown, Governor 500 Summer St NE E20 Salem OR 97301 Voice: 503-947-2340 Fax: 503-947-2341 June 30, 2021 COVID-19 Public Health Recommendations: Indoor air considerations for smaller spaces Improved indoor air quality is associated with improved productivity and better health outcomes, regardless of COVID-19. Improvements on those conditions, where needed, will be an investment that can provide benefits extending beyond mitigating infectious disease transmission. Indoor air spaces need special consideration because of COVID-19 transmission potential from the buildup in air of aerosols that we generate from breathing, talking, laughing, shouting, singing, coughing, and sneezing. Maintaining a distance of at least 6 feet between people will help prevent exposure to droplets that we emit, but smaller particles or aerosols can be airborne for minutes to hours depending on ventilation, humidity, and other indoor space factors. Poor ventilation of indoor settings, with larger numbers of people, significantly increases the risk of viral transmission. Below are steps that building managers and property owners can take to improve the indoor air quality in the settings they manage. In general, these steps aim to 1) increase the amount of fresh outside air that is introduced into the system, 2) exhaust air from indoors to the outdoors, and 3) clean the air that is recirculated indoors by using various filtration methods (e.g., HEPA filters) to remove virus-containing particles from the air. Ventilation public health recommendations for indoor spaces • Increase outdoor ventilation of clean air into indoor spaces. • Aim for fewer people in larger rooms.
