"Indoor air quality (IAQ) and indoor air pollution (IAP) are a cause of concern in many countries because they can significantly influence the general health and well-being of those who spend most of their time inside, whether at home or work. Poor indoor air quality and repeated exposure to dangerous concentrations of pollutants can contribute significantly to the healthcare burden, as well as leading to increased absenteeism and lost productivity worldwide. This book, Indoor Air Quality Assessment for Smart Environments, explores the problem of IAQ and highlights potential challenges, gaps, and opportunities in the field. As the title suggests, it focuses on assessing indoor air quality in smart environments, which use emerging technologies like the Internet of Things (IoT) and intelligent building management systems which deploy Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN). The book contains 8 chapters, written by various experts in the field and addressing significant elements of IAQ management, including: definition, state-of-the-art and applications; sensing techniques; technological interventions and smart environments; smart monitoring devices; green and smart hospitals; health risks of nano building products; the optimization of household ventilation; and an assessment of smart environments. As well as providing a useful source of knowledge for researchers, policymakers, public health professionals and government agencies wishing to enhance the air quality in buildings, the book will also serve as a guide to building occupants who wish to take the necessary measures to enhance the built environment and improve ventilation"--

This dissertation by Ulf Larsson examines the performance of stratified ventilation systems, focusing on their effectiveness in providing indoor air quality and thermal comfort. In the context of Sweden's increasing energy demands, the study explores various ventilation supply devices like displacement supply devices, impinging jet supply devices, and wall confluent jet supply devices. Using both experimental and numerical methods, the research addresses three main questions concerning airflow interaction, energy performance, and thermal comfort. The findings indicate that stratified ventilation systems improve air change effectiveness and thermal comfort compared to traditional mixing systems. The work targets professionals and researchers in the field of energy systems and indoor climate engineering.
