Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

The proposed Special Issue focuses on the role of ventilation and air distribution to improve indoor air quality, control pollutants, and infectious agents, and satisfy thermal comfort needs for built environments both above ground and underground. Ventilation technologies can be natural, mechanical, or hybrid. Built environments can be human-occupied, industrial, or agricultural functional. This Special Issue will present developments of highly efficient ventilation and air distribution technologies for different scenarios.
