Numerical simulation study on the effects of fountain on around thermal environment

With the fast development of urbanization in China, the urban thermal environment has been worsen due to the more and more obvious heat island phenomena. Aartificial waterscape is regarded as one of the most effective methods to improve the outdoor climate. In this paper a fountain model is developped based on experiment results and Particle-Source-In Cell (PSI-CELL) model. Lagrangian approach is adopted to simulate the dynamics properties of droplets in the air while Eulerian approach is employed to solve the conservation equations of the air.

METHODS FOR INDOOR AIR DISINFECTION AND PURIFICATION FROM AIRBORNE PATHOGENS FOR APPLICATION IN HVAC SYSTEMS

The present paper is a review on methods and technologies for air cleaning from micro organisms andviruses, which are applicable with the present HVAC practices. The advantages and the drawbacks ofair dilution, filtration (HEPA, ULPA), ultraviolet germicidal irradiation (UVGI), photocatalytic oxidation(PCO), plasmacluster ions and other technologies for air disinfection and purification is criticallyanalyzed with respect to the used today air distribution principles.
