DE-79-01-4 -- Infiltration-Pressurization Correlations: Surface Pressures and Terrain Effects
In the past, the main concern for studying air flow around buildings has been to describe wind loads for design purposes, to loc ate intake and exhaust ports for HVAC systems, and to insure adequate stack effect for combustion processes. Recently, designing for energy conservation has underlined the importance in understanding how air flow around buildings affects heat loss through infiltration.Citation: ASHRAE Transactions, Volume 85, Part 2, Detroit, MI
