Dispersion of indoor air pollutants emitted at near-floor levels in rooms with floor heating and mixing ventilation
The usage of floor heating is increasing in low-energy buildings as it enables efficient applications of low-exergy level heat sources as well as provides a uniform distribution of air temperature and low air velocities in heated spaces. The aim of this study was to analyse the effects of floor heating on the dispersion of gaseous pollutants emitted at the floor level, considering that carpets and flooring materials can be sources of such pollution. Mixing ventilation with high-level wall grille air supply and in-ceiling four-way air supply was tested numerically and experimentally in the full-scale chamber at the air change rate of 2 h−1. Three positions of a heated dummy in relation to the pollution source, cold surface and air supply diffusers were analysed. Both experiments and CFD predictions revealed the overall positive effect of floor heating on ventilation effectiveness and personal exposure. Floor heating increased pollutant removal effectiveness by 5% and reduced personal exposure by 22% on average.
