The influence of heat and contaminant source nonuniformity on the performance of three different room air distribution methods.

Author(s) : HAGSTRÖM K. H., ZHIVOV A. M., SIRÉN K., et al.

Summary

The heat and contaminant source nonuniformity and source location were found to have a major influence on the efficiencies of the room air distribution methods studied. For example, the occupied zone nonuniformity was fourfold at highest compared to the cases with a uniform source. Analysis of the data shows that with zonal room air distribution methods, both vertical and horizontal zoning are created when the sources are not uniform.
