Abstract

This introductory chapter describes the importance of industrial air technology, the definition and purpose of industrial air technology, and the basic system principles. The challenges faced by designers and practitioners in the industrial ventilation field, compared to comfort ventilation, are much more complex. In industrial ventilation, it is essential to have an in-depth knowledge of modern computational fluid dynamics (CFD), three-dimensional heat flow, complex fluid flows, steady state and transient conditions, operator issues, contaminants inside and outside the facility, etc. In all ventilation, the condition of the indoor environment, called indoor air quality (lAQ), and the exposures for the occupants are important. In addition to measures to control the indoor environment, industrial air technology also includes measures to prevent harmful emissions from industrial processes from being discharged outdoors, such as conveying and cleaning technologies and controlled discharge of exhaust air. Industrial air technology systems can be classified into two categories: industrial ventilation and process air technology.
