In this paper, the vertical and horizontal spreading rates of CJV (confluent jet ventilation) over the floor are investigated using CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) simulations. They are compared with the spreading rates of the wall displacement ventilation (DV) system. The authors conclude that the wall confluent jet is able to cool a room with a heat load, a displacement system is not able to cope with.
