Abstract
Traditionally, air is supplied to the aircraft cabin either by individual nozzles or by supply slots. The air is expected to be fully mixed in the cabin, and the system is considered to be a mixing ventilation system. This paper will describe different air distribution systems known from other applications namely: the traditional mixing ventilation, displacement ventilation, downward ventilation and finally a personalized ventilation system as well, which is used in addition to the other systems.
The experiments are made in a full-scale left side section of a single-aisle (Boeing 737) cabin with four seats. The four persons are simulated by thermal manikins. Velocity, temperature and cross-infection risk are measured by hot spheres, thermocouples and tracer gas.
