Pulmonary function tests in air conditioner users

چکیده
Air-conditioners (AC) are devices/systems that are used indoors to cool air by reducing the humidity of the air following condensation of the water vapour. It is observed that hyperventilation of cold dry air causes bronchoconstriction in asthmatic patients. [1,2] Modern styles of living in urban areas are considered potentially responsible for the development of airway allergic diseases due to proliferation of house dust, mites, and increasing concentration of indoor air pollutants which lead to elevation of serum IgE levels or the enhancement ofoesinophilactivity.

Pulmonary functions in air conditioner users.
Air conditioning may affect human health since it has profound effect on our environment, than just lowering temperature. The present study was planned to assess the effect of air conditioners (AC) on pulmonary functions in young healthy non-smoker males. The study group comprised of ten subjects who were using AC's in their cars for at least 1 hr daily since last 6 months. While ten subjects w...
متن کاملDevelopment of a Pilot Plant Solar Liquid Desiccant Air Conditioner for the Northern Region of Iran
In a 10-ton capacity pilot plant solar liquid desiccant air conditioner (LDAC) developed, dehumidification of the outside air is achieved through a honeycomb packed-bed heat and mass exchanger, using lithium chloride solution as the desiccant. The dry air obtained from the dehumidification process is evaporative cooled inside a cooling pad and directed into the conditioned space. The dilute sol...
