Abstract

To simulate the indoor air distribution accurately and quickly, this paper proposed a turbulence calculation model based on the zero-equation model and the SUPG finite element method. The optimal calculation parameters were investigated. The effects of air outlet positions, Reynolds numbers, and obstacle positions on indoor air distribution were studied. The results show that the ranges of Reynolds numbers which satisfy the summer and winter demands of indoor air velocity as the outlet at the right down position are larger than those when the outlet locates left down. When the air outlet locates at the left down position, the velocity non-uniformity coefficients are less than those under the other two conditions. Regardless of whether the air outlet is at the left or right position, the obstacle in the middle of a room can lead to worse velocity uniformity when air velocities in the working zone can meet the velocity demand.
