Compared with residential restrooms, public toilets usually have higher utilization rates. How to ensure the air quality in through reasonable ventilation is of great significance human health. In this study, an office building a toilet selected as research object, and Airpak 3.0 software adopted simulate airflow velocity distribution different change rates exhaust vent heights. Variations dist...

This paper presents the control of Spark Ignition (SI) Internal Combustion (IC) engine Fuel-to-Air Ratio (FAR) using an adaptive control method of time-delay systems. The objective is to maintain the in-cylinder FAR at a prescribed set point, determined primarily by the state of the Three-Way Catalyst (TWC), so that the pollutants in the exhaust are removed with the highest efficiency. The FAR ...

Most ventilation and air conditioning systems are designed without much concern about how settling particles behave in ventilation air flows. For displacement ventilation systems, designers normally assume that all pollutants follow the buoyant air flow into an upper zone, where they are evacuated. This is, however, not always true. Previous studies show that high concentrations of settling res...

Nitrogen oxides (NOx) are besides particulate matter (PM), especially for diesel engines, the most relevant emission components. Against this background and the fact that passenger car emission legislation is permanently becoming stricter, there is still a growing interest in minimizing these pollutants. Beside the highly nonlinear behavior of engines also the tradeoff between PM and NOx is a c...

Abstraet--A continuous tlow bioassay system was designed to measure the effects of outboard motor exhaust (OME) emissions and selected volatile and evaporative aromatic toxicants on goldfish (Carassitts auratus). Continuous flow bioassays were run for 24, 48, 72. 96. and 720h to determine lethal concentrations for 50y.~, of individuals (LC-50"s) for leaded OME, non-leaded OME. toluene, xylene, ...

The environment is a major contributor to allergic disease, and great effort is being expended to identify the chemical pollutants and allergens that make a significant impact. Exposure to high levels of ozone, sulfur dioxide, nitrogen dioxide, and diesel exhaust particles is known to reduce lung function. Studies continue to delineate the role of these particles as adjuvants and carriers of al...

Major efforts to control motor vehicle emissions have been made in recent years, both through improved emission control technologies and through gasoline reformulation. Our assessment of the impacts of these efforts was conducted in the San Francisco Bay Area, in lanes of a highway tunnel where heavy-duty vehicles are not allowed. This study focuses on the afternoon rush hour, during which over...

This paper puts forward one kind of air-fuel ratio control method with PI controller. With the help of MATLAB/SIMULINK software, the mathematical model of air-fuel ratio control system for distributorless CNG engine is constructed. The objective is to maintain cylinder-to-cylinder air-fuel ratio at a prescribed set point, determined primarily by the state of the ThreeWay-Catalyst (TWC), so that...
