Abstract
Total heat recovery type ventilators that are connected to each room with ducts are mainly installed in Korea, but they raise concern over duct pollution. In this study, indoor environments made by thin line type ventilators installed in dwelling units of apartment houses are investigated by CFD. Results show the case that thin line type ventilators installed in each room-including kitchens-make the best indoor environment that maintains air velocity at under 0.25m/s, and evenly distributes the age of air in all areas.
