Coupling of thermal and airflow calculation programs offering simultaneous thermal and airflow analysis.

Author(s) : KAFETZOPOULOS M. G., SUEN K. O.

Type of article: Article

Summary

The paper assesses the feasibility of coupling a thermal simulation software (Apache) with a multi-zone airflow software (Swifib). The simultaneous multi-zone airflow and thermal analysis is particularly important in large-enclosure buildings, such as atria. The study highlights the need for such analysis and shows that a new generation of combined thermal and airflow software can be produced by coupling the currently available thermal and airflow simulation software together.
