Abstract
Outdoor particulate is an important source of indoor particulates, which can cause serious harm to human health. Industrial and transport emissions and particulate matter aerosols emitted by the combustion process are the main sources of pollution in the urban air environment, resulting in continued growth in outdoor particulate matter concentrations. Study the correlation between indoor and outdoor particulate matter concentration by measuring the concentration of particulate matter indoors and outdoors in different functional residential rooms in different seasons. The I/O value of indoor and outdoor particulate matter was established, and the influence of outdoor particulate matter concentration on indoor particulate matter concentration was analyzed by experimental data. The I/O values of different functional rooms are also different, and the I/O value of the bedroom is smaller than the I/O value of the living room and kitchen. The research results will lay the foundation for further research on the control method of indoor particulate matter pollution in urban residential buildings.
