Performance Potential of Mechanical Ventilation Systems with Minimized Pressure Loss

In many locations mechanical ventilation has been the most widely used principle of ventilation over the last 50 years but the conventional system design must be revised to comply with future energy requirements. This paper examines the options and describes a concept for the design of mechanical ventilation systems with minimal pressure loss and minimal energy use.  This can provide comfort ventilation and avoid overheating through increased ventilation and night cooling.
