Three naturally and six mechanically ventilated microenvironments (MEs) of a mix-use commercial building in Delhi are used to study indoor–outdoor (I/O) relationships of particulate matter ≤10 μm (PM10), ≤2.5 μm (PM2.5), and ≤1 μm (PM1). Effect of environmental and occupancy parameters on the concentrations of PM during working and non-working hours (i.e., activity and non-activity periods, respectively) are also investigated. Average outdoor concentration of PM10 and PM2.5 were found to exceed…
