The primary function of an air handling system for any type of clean room is to control the level of airborne contaminant particles by constantly filtering and recirculating the air. The arrangement of a system depends on whether it is to be a conventional clean room, unidirectional vertical or horizontal flow clean room. In the basic form, however, it consists of a fan, ducting for inlet and exhaust air and an air filtration system.  1, record 1, English, - air%20handling%20system

Because the façades are not airtight, building occupants often block up the fresh-air ducts, thereby interfering with the air circulation system.  3, record 1, English, - air%20handling%20system

A containment system surrounding a nuclear reactor is designed to prevent the release of any radioactive material to the outside environment in the event of an accident. The containment system at all Canadian nuclear generating stations consists of an airtight reactor containment building(with reinforced concrete walls up to 1. 8 meters thick) for each reactor.  1, record 2, English, - containment%20system

Airtight construction. Any house has a large number of potential air leakage points ... These leakage points let cold outside air in, and warm inside air out. As a result, in a conventional house, it is not uncommon for the heated indoor air to be completely changed every half hour. A major potential problem associated with this air change [is] condensation in the building’s structure ... There is in addition, a second problem: such air change typically accounts for 25-30 per cent of the total house heat loss ... The use of an air-vapour barrier is an attempt to prevent these problems by stopping virtually all air leakage.  1, record 5, English, - airtight%20construction

Une construction étanche à l'air a-t-elle besoin de ventilation? Dans les maisons construites de façon traditionnelle, le renouvellement de l'air intérieur est amplement assuré par les fuites et les infiltrations d'air fortuites à travers l'enveloppe du bâtiment. Dans une maison étanche à l'air, l'air frais nécessaire au maintien d'une atmosphère intérieure agréable est fourni par une ventilation mécanique contrôlée.  1, record 5, French, - construction%20%C3%A9tanche%20%C3%A0%20l%27air
