Stratum ventilation is a recently proposed air distribution system. It works by creating a layer of fresher air in the occupants' breathing zone. This is achieved by placing large supply inlets along the side-walls of the room just above the height of the occupants. Fresh air is emitted into the room and gradually loses momentum. The supply velocity is sufficiently strong to provide fresh air directly to the occupants without space mixing.
