2. Air changes per hour - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air_changes_per_hour

   Air changes per hour, abbreviated ACPH or ACH, or air change rate is the number of times that the total air volume in a room or space is completely removed and replaced in an hour. If the air in the space is either uniform or perfectly mixed, air changes per hour is a measure of how many times the air within a defined space is replaced each hour.

3. Infiltration (HVAC) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infiltration_(HVAC)

   The infiltration rate is the volumetric flow rate of outside air into a building, typically in cubic feet per minute (CFM) or liters per second (LPS). The air exchange rate, (I), is the number of interior volume air changes that occur per hour, and has units of 1/h.

4. Register (air and heating) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Register_(air_and_heating)

   During winter months, for example, an air conditioning register can be closed to prevent cold air from being pulled from the room. This allows the hot air to mix more completely with the cold air in the room, improving the efficiency of the HVAC system. [7] (The return should be efficient enough to draw off the cooler air.) [10] [11]

5. Underfloor air distribution - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Underfloor_air_distribution

   At a certain plane in the room, the airflow rate returned to the upper zone is equal to the supply air. The plane divides the room into occupied zone and upper zone and leads to thermal stratification: the hot and contaminated air is concentrated in the upper zone, and the air in the occupied zone is cool and fresh. [2]

6. Room air distribution - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Room_air_distribution

   Supply diffusers in the ceiling are fed by fan coil units in the ceiling void or by air handling units in a remote plant room. The fan coil or handling unit takes in return air from the ceiling void and mix this with fresh air and cool, or heat it, as required to achieve the room design conditions. This arrangement is known as 'conventional ...

7. 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]).
