STUDY OF AIRFLOW PATTERN RELATED TO INDOOR AIR POLLUTION (IAP) INSIDE PARKING…

The increasing population of motorized vehicles has caused air pollution in ambient (outdoor) or indoor environments. Sometimes, Indoor air pollution (IAP) is more crucial than ambient air quality since many people spend their time mostly inside buildings. Many studies have been conducted to control the IAP, such as by improving the airflow, which provides adequate air supply and avoids air pol…
