Influence of Natural Ventilation on Indoor PM2.5 Concentration in Residential Building

Article Preview

Abstract:

According to PM2.5 contamination in residential building, a mathematical model is established about the effect of natural ventilation on PM2.5 pollution control based on calculus method. On the basis of some actual cases, such as indoor smoking and cleaning, indoor PM2.5 concentration is calculated for different air change rate and outdoor air quality. The concept of critical ventilation rate is provided. The conclusion of the paper provides some advice on natural ventilation and indoor life behavior.
