ventilation
의미: The provision of fresh air to a room or building, or the system used to achieve this. In medicine, the process of supplying air to the lungs, naturally or mechanically.
Good ventilation is essential in buildings for health, comfort, and the prevention of damp and mould — a significant issue in UK housing. Mechanical ventilation systems use fans and ducts to circulate air, whilst natural ventilation relies on windows, vents, and air pressure differences. In medical contexts, mechanical ventilation (using a ventilator) assists or replaces a patient's own breathing. The word has gained wider public familiarity since the COVID-19 pandemic highlighted the importance of indoor air quality.
