Natural Ventilation of Buildings

Natural Ventilation of Buildings Theory, Measurement, and Design by David Etheridge. There are two aims of this book. The first is to provide a reasonably comprehensive and up-to-date account of the theory and measurement of natural ventilation. The second is to describe how theory and measurement can be applied to the design of naturally ventilated buildings.  The book also describes the theoretical and experimental techniques for the practical problems faced by designers.  Particular attention is given to the limitations of the various techniques and the associated uncertainties.
