  2. Engineering controls - Wikipedia

    Local exhaust ventilation (LEV) is the application of an exhaust system at or near the source of contamination. If properly designed, it will be much more efficient at removing contaminants than dilution ventilation, requiring lower exhaust volumes, less make-up air, and, in many cases, lower costs.

  3. Displacement ventilation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Displacement_ventilation

    Displacement ventilation is best suited for taller spaces (higher than 3 meters [10 feet]). [2] Standard mixing ventilation may be better suited for smaller spaces where air quality is not as great a concern, such as single-occupant offices, and where the room height is not tall (e.g., lower than 2.3 meters [7.5 feet]).

  4. Ventilation (architecture) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ventilation_(architecture)

    When a building design relies on infiltration to maintain indoor air quality, this flow has been referred to as adventitious ventilation. [5] The design of buildings that promote occupant health and well-being requires a clear understanding of the ways that ventilation airflow interacts with, dilutes, displaces, or introduces pollutants within ...

Naturally ventilation can also be used without mechanical ventilation system if the design follows Natural Ventilation Procedure in ...

  6. Duct (industrial exhaust) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Duct_(industrial_exhaust)

    Industrial exhaust ducts are pipe systems that connect hoods to industrial chimneys through other components of exhaust systems like fans, collectors, etc. Ducts are low-pressure pneumatic conveyors to convey dust, particles, shavings, fumes, or chemical hazardous components from air in the vicinity to a shop floor or any other specific locations like tanks, sanding machines, or laboratory hoods.

  7. Duct (flow) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Duct_(flow)

    Ducts commonly also deliver ventilation air as part of the supply air. As such, air ducts are one method of ensuring acceptable indoor air quality as well as thermal comfort. A duct system is also called ductwork. Planning (laying out), sizing, optimizing, detailing, and finding the pressure losses through a duct system is called duct design. [2]
