Description
In modern society, house dust particulate matters pollution had become serious. Ventilation is an important method for removing house dust particulate matters and it is very important to explore the removal efficiency of house dust particulate matters under different ventilation modes. This study analyses the removal effect of house dust particulate matters under the two typical ventilation modes called ceiling exhaust and slit exhaust strategy through experiments and date analysis. In the process of experiments, riboflavin particles were used as the house dust particulate matters, instantaneous microbial detection (IMD) was used to measure the house dust particulate matters. Walking test was carried on after the ventilation system running for some time, which aimed to explore the influence of human behaviour on the house dust particulate matters distribution under two different ventilation modes. It is concluded that larger size particles had larger sedimentation velocity and sedimentation velocity of particles would be faster significantly after the ventilation system working. After walking experiment, particles concentration returned to background concentrations due to the effect of the ventilation system. Particles concentration in slit exhaust strategy was lower than ceiling exhaust so that the effect of slit exhaust strategy is superior to the ceiling exhaust.
