Summary

PRESENTS A CONTRIBUTION TO THE NUMERICAL SIMULATION OF 3 DIMENSIONAL AIR FLOW PATTERNS IN VENTILATED ROOMS. CONSIDERS 2 AIR FLOW CASES: A NEAR TWO-DIMENSIONAL TURBULENT FLOW AND A FULLY DEVELOPED THREE-DIMENSIONAL FLOW. USES EXPERIMENTAL DATA FROM THE LITERATURE ON THESE CASES FOR VERIFICATION OF THE RESULTS OBTAINED USING THE FINITE VOLUME PACKAGE PHOENICS. STATES THAT RATHER GOOD RESULTS CAN BE ACHIEVED FOR THE NEAR TWO-DIMENSIONAL FLOW CASE. THERE IS A GREATER DISCREPANCY BETWEEN EXPERIMENTAL AND CALCULATED DATA FOR THE THREE-DIMENSIONAL FLOW. CONCLUDES THAT A PARTICULAR UNCERTAINTY IS LIKELY TO REMAIN OWING TO THE VERY NATURE OF THE NUMERICAL SIMULATION METHOD. (INT. BUILD. SERV. ABSTR., GB., 24, N 6, 1989/11-12, 89-01758.
