Abstract

In order to provide a comfort thermal environment to each occupant whose clothing and thermal sensitivity are different, it is necessary to make a proper temperature gradient in a room. In this study, an inverse method using source-receptor (SR) relationship was used to estimate optimal inlet temperature of each air conditioner to make temperature field close to objective field. To validate the method, the method was applied on an existing class room. The SR relationship was calculated by CFD simulation, and the optimal inlet temperature to approximate temperature field to objective field was estimated by using SR relationship. Though the method worked well, the improvement was small in the numerical experiment, because of spatially weak relationship between the inlet temperature and indoor temperature field.
