Simulation Results

Recently, attention has been given to indoor air quality due to its serious health concerns. Clearly the dispersion of pollutant is directly affected by the airflow patterns. The airflow in indoor environment is the results of a combination of several factors. In the present study, the effects of thermal plume and respiration on the indoor air quality in a ventilated cubicle were investigated using an unsteady computational modeling approach. The person-to-person contaminant transports in a ventilated room with mixing and displacement ventilation systems were studied. The effects of rotational motion of the heated manikins were also analyzed. Simulation results showed that in the cases which rotational motion was included, the human thermal plume and associated particle transport were significantly distorted. The distortion was more noticeable for the displacement ventilation system. Also it was found that the displacement ventilation system lowered the risk of person-to-person transmission in an office space in comparison with the mixing ventilation system. On the other hand the mixing system was shown to be more effective compared to the displacement ventilation in removing the particles and pollutant that entered the room through the inlet air diffuser.

Due to its significant role in improving indoor air quality, displacement ventilation system is widely adopted in current literature. This paper proposes a displacement ventilation system for room conditions with ceilings that are relatively low, internal heat load could be high, walls could be sunlit, and occupants doing the low physical activity. These conditions are prevalent in the Philippines, being a tropical country. Input parameters to the design process such as heat load, the height of the ceiling, comfort, and indoor air quality requirements were generated, and the main output parameters are the stratification height and ventilation airflow rate. To demonstrate the proposed displacement ventilation system, four cases were generated. Results show that the ventilation airflow rates obtained from the four cases were greater than the minimum outdoor air requirements for health in conference rooms and large assembly areas which are 17.5 and 3.5 liters/sec*person respectively, for smoking and no smoking rooms.

Air Contaminants

Air distribution systems inside a bus compartment are important for providing healthy and comfortable environment for passengers. Lack of ventilation inside the bus passenger compartment causes an increase level of air contaminants concentration. Particulate matters and carbon monoxide are indoor air contaminants which can affect the passenger’s health such as respiratory problem and lung cancer. This article reports the results of a CFD simulation on transport of carbon monoxide and particulate matter 1 inside a passenger compartment of a university’s shuttle bus. Fluent CFD software was used to develop a simplified three-dimensional model of the bus passenger compartment. Flow analysis was carried out using RNG k-e turbulent model for air flow, discrete phase and species transport for the air contaminants. Four variations of ventilation system namely two mixing ventilation types, combined mixing with displacement ventilation and combined mixing ventilation with underfloor air distribution was examined. The CFD simulation results show that the use of the combined mixing and displacement ventilation and also the combined mixing and underfloor ventilation types are capable of reducing the concentration of carbon monoxide and particulate matter 1 inside the bus passenger compartment by 81% and 54%, respectively.

This paper introduces the principle and characteristics of roof radiant cooling and displacement ventilation system, using numerical simulation method, the indoor airflow velocity and temperature field of the typical bedroom which uses the composite system in Ji'nan City under the different supply air velocity was calculated. The experimental results show that when the air temperature is 295.15K, to keep the indoor vertical temperature less than 3 °C, air speed should be greater than 0.1m/s and less than or equal to 0.3m/s, to provide reference for the application of roof radiant cooling and displacement ventilation system.
