Simulation of Indoor Pollutant Distribution in Residential Buildings under Different Ventilation Modes

Abstract

For clear residential indoor pollutant concentration under different ventilation modes and contaminant distribution, to explore the emission efficiency of different ventilation way, choose suitable way of ventilation, different season in Shenyang, this article selects some typical residence as the research object, interior decoration materials commonly used as indoor pollutant source, based on CFD fluid mechanics principle, Airpak3.0.16 software was used to simulate indoor air flow field and indoor concentration distribution field of formaldehyde, benzene and VOC, and to compare and analyse indoor pollutant distribution law, air age and pollutant discharge efficiency under natural ventilation and mechanical ventilation in winter and summer. The results show that ventilation can effectively discharge most of indoor pollutants. 69% of indoor pollutants can be discharged by natural ventilation in summer, 46% of indoor pollutants can be discharged by natural ventilation in winter, 57% of indoor pollutants can be discharged by mechanical ventilation in summer, and 51% of indoor pollutants can be discharged by mechanical ventilation in winter. Under the condition of the same ventilation volume in the same season, natural ventilation has the best effect in summer, and considering that the energy consumption of mechanical ventilation is much higher than that of natural ventilation, natural ventilation is recommended in summer. The effect of mechanical ventilation is better in winter, and because Shenyang is not suitable to open Windows for ventilation for a long time in winter, mechanical ventilation should be used in winter.
