Abstract

To investigate the effect of near-wall heat-source shape on particulate motion, the particulate distribution and deposition in a ventilated chamber with different heat-source configurations were numerically modeled. Using the discrete random walk model of the Lagrangian method, the trajectories of 3200 mono-disperse particulates ranging from 1 to 10μm with a density of 1400kg/m3 were tracked. Airflow pattern, temperature fields, the distribution of particulate concentrations, and deposition patterns are calculated and presented. The results show that the shape of a near-wall heat source has an influence on the airflow as well as the temperature field in the chamber and hence affects the particulate distribution and deposition.
