Readers areassumed to be familiar with the basic principles of fluid flow and heattransfer and some of the material requires more advanced knowledge of partialdifferential equations which describe the turbulent flow and heat transferprocesses of fluids. The book is both a presentation of the practical issuesthat are needed for modern ventilation system design and a survey of recentdevelopments in the subject «
