A Novel Technique of Infrared Thermography for Ambient Air Infiltration Detection in Air- Conditioned Space
Abstract: Maintaining thermal comfort in the indoor microenvironment is essential for occupants’ well-being and functioning. Heating, ventilation and air conditioning account for a significant share in building energy consumption. Therefore, it is necessary to act on each energy-saving opportunity to improve air conditioners' energy efficiency and reduce outdoor air ingress in cooling space. Many earlier works focused on improving the performance of air conditioners; however, measurement of heat losses through building/room …

Modeling and Simulation of Heat and Mass Exchanges in Refrigerated Compartment of a Truck
Abstract: This paper presents a numerical model to simulate, in dynamic regime, the heat and mass exchanges in refrigerated compartment of a truck coupled with its refrigeration machine. The model of the refrigerated compartment developed, is based on mass and energy balances of the air inside the compartment. Heat exchanges through the walls, including the thermal bridges, are calculated. Another sub-model determines the heat and humidity exchanges during the door openings. …

A Critical Analysis of Research on Swallow-induced Respiratory Functions in Healthy Individuals as a Function of Head/Body Position
Abstract: Pulmonary functions and respiratory airflow are known to change with the body and head positions. The precise coordination of swallowing with regular respiratory patterns prevents lower airway infiltration during bolus passage. This review was conducted to analyze the influence of head and body positions on the respiratory measures surrounding a swallow in healthy individuals. An all-inclusive search run on the most popular health science databases retrieved 18,588 articles that were …

Effects of Gypsophila on Airway Inflammation in Guinea pig model of ovalbumin‐induced Asthma
Abstract: To look at how Gypsophlia (GSP) affects airway inflammation in a model of ovalbumin-induced asthma in guinea pigs (OVA).Methods: Using a random number table, sixty healthy female guinea pigs were split into six groups, each consisting of ten rats: the normal control, OVA, and GSP (0.45, 0.9, 1.8, and 3.6 g/kg). The ovalbumin and lipopolysaccharide sensitization approach was used to create the OVA guinea pig model. The GSP groups received …
