The Fleet Type Submarine - Chapter 7
There is a detailed diagram of the air induction, as well as the ventilation system, at this link.
The entire Fleet Submarine manual from WWII era is available through that website. The manual was used in training submariners back then, and has a lot of diagrams and explanations of systems.
