本文讨论了奥尔巴尼州议会大厦和纽约州国会大厦蒸汽供暖和机械通风的早期发展。从历史上看，这项研究始于18世纪和19世纪初J.T.Desaguliers博士和Humphrey Davy爵士在议会大厦的工作。然而，主要关注的是博斯韦尔·里德博士1834年后在上议院和下议院的工作，以及后来托马斯·富勒和艾萨克·佩里在奥尔巴尼纽约州国会大厦的工作。本文介绍了蒸汽加热、空气净化的设计- 分配系统和过滤系统，应用于这两种早期的供暖和通风技术。引文:研讨会，ASHRAE交易，1984年，第90卷，pt。密苏里州堪萨斯城2B

This paper discusses the early developments of steam heating and mechanical ventilation for the Houses of Parliament and the New York State Capitol in Albany. Historically, the study begins with the work of Dr. J.T. Desaguliers and Sir Humphrey Davy on the Houses of Parliament in the 18th and early 19th centuries. The primary focus, however, is on the work of Dr. Boswell Reid after 1834 on the House of Lords and House of Commons and later the work of Thomas Fuller and Isaac Perry on the New York State Capitol in Albany. The paper describes the design of steam heating, air-distribution systems, and filtration as applied to these two early examples of heating and ventilating technology.
