Influence of the wind on chimney effluents and on the ventilation of high-rise buildings. Invloed van de wind op de afvoef van rook en gassen en op deventilatie by hoogbouw.

States that high-rise buildings can cause problems to occupants particularly since wind velocity and pressure fluctuations will be more pronounced than at ground level. Outlines ways in which smoke from chimneys can cause difficulties and gives reasons for difficulties when ventilating or air conditioning high-rise buildings. Recommends testing a model of the building in a windtunnel; lists points to be investigated; discusses rules for scaling giving formulae and outlines the testing procedure.
