Abstract

The paper presents and discusses data for the ventilation airflow in an isothermal room corresponding to the Nielsen et al. (1978) test computed with Large Eddy Simulation (LES) and Reynolds-Averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) approaches. As LES computations provide directly both the speed and velocity components data, the difference between the mean speed and mean velocity values is computed and discussed. For the RANS computations that give the mean velocity data only, application of the velocity-to-speed conversion procedure based on the turbulence kinetic energy field provided by a turbulence model resulted in accurate mean speed evaluation.
