Computational fluid dynamics in ventilation design.

Author(s) : NIELSEN P. V., ALLARD F., AWBI H. B., et al.

Type of monograph: Book, Guide/Handbook

Summary

Both the development of CFD models for room air movement and progress in the general fluid dynamics research are strongly influenced by the increased computer power that has been available for the past few decades. CFD-calculations have rapidly been developed a powerful tool for the analysis of air and pollution distribution in various spaces. However, the user of CFD-calculation should be aware of the basic principles of calculations, and specifically of the boundary conditions. This guidebook is intended for users of CFD-programs, designers, manufactures and building owners. It gives also guidelines for those who order CFD-calculations from the experts and with its illustrations and examples it is also an excellent text book.
Extract from the table of contents: symbols and glossary; mathematical background; turbulence models; numerical methods; boundary conditions; quality control; CFD combined with other prediction models; application of CFD codes in building design; case studies; benchmark tests.
