44. HVAC | Ventilation
Ventilation
Ventilation is the process of changing or replacing air in any space to control temperature or remove any combination
of moisture, odour, smoke, heat, dust, airborne bacteria, or carbon dioxide, and to replenish oxygen. Ventilation
includes both the exchange of air with the outside as well as circulation of air within the building.
Design Considerations –
Following considerations provide details regarding the various parameters that affect the type of ventilation system
selected for a particular application, and the sizing of the ventilation plant:
National Building Code of India 2005 specified the ventilation requirement as per following table:
Ventilation Requirement for various areas in various buildings :
Application Air Change per hour Application Air Change per hour
Bathrooms 6-10 Entrance halls 3-5
Corridors 5-10 Hospital –sterilizing 15-25

HVAC | Ventilation
Natural Ventilation
Natural ventilation is the ventilation of a building with outside air without using fans or other mechanical systems. It
can be via operable windows, louvers, or trickle vents when spaces are small and the architecture permits.
Three base elements are in natural ventilation design that includes: knowledge about air flow, base air flow, and
calculation the opening location and area.
Maximize wind-induced ventilation by siting the ridge of a building perpendicular to the summer winds.
Naturally ventilated buildings should be narrow. It is difficult to distribute fresh air to all portions of a very wide building
using natural ventilation. The maximum width that one could expect to ventilate naturally is estimated at 45 ft.
Consequently, buildings that rely on natural ventilation often have an articulated floor plan.
Each room should have two separate supply and exhaust openings.
- Site wind Speed = 10km/h
47. Case Study | Government Hospital, Sector 32, Chandigarh
HVAC | Ventilation
Natural Ventilation
Hospital is well naturally ventilated.
Ventilation is done by windows, doors, central courts and cutouts.
48. Mechanical Ventilation

air diffusers and outlets for air distribution within the building. It may include either mechanical exhaust system or
exhaust can occur through natural means.
Space Requirement -
i) The space requirement for the equipments, air washers etc., shall be as per the manufacturer‘s recommendations.
ii) The minimum clear height of the equipment and air washer rooms shall be 3.6 m. The actual height required would
depend upon the capacity of the equipment and manufacturer‘s recommendation.
Equipment Location -
i) The plant room shall be located contiguous to the space to be ventilated to reduce the pressure drop in the system.
ii) Where air washers are also to be installed the room shall be treated with waterproof treatment and shall be located
adjacent to the blower room.

Waste Management | Introduction
Hospital waste is “Any waste which is generated in the diagnosis, treatment or immunization of human beings or
animals or in research” in a hospital. This is also called ‘Bio-Medical Waste’ (BMW).
75-90% Non-Hazardous/General Waste
10-15% -Hazardous
Waste Categories Description and Examples
1.General Waste No risk to human health eg: office paper, wrapper, kitchen waste, general sweeping etc.
2.Pathological Waste Human Tissue or fluid eg: body parts, blood, body fluids etc.
3.Sharps Sharp waste eg: Needle, staples, knives, blades etc.
4.Infectious waste Which may transmit bacterial, viral or parasitic disease to human
being, waste suspected to contain pathogen eg :laboratory
culture, tissues(swabs)bandage etc.
5.Chemical waste eg. Laboratory reagent, disinfectants, Film Developer
6.Radio-active waste eg: unused liquid from radiotherapy or lab research, contaminated
glassware's etc.
