LoginIn this paper a proposal has been made for the radiator to be used for the measurements and numerical simulations of test case d: 'free convection with radiator'.
Bibliographic database Airbase
AIRBASE is the Bibliographic Database of the AIVC. It contains publications and abstracts of articles related to energy efficient ventilation. Where possible, sufficient detail is supplied in the bibliographic details for users to trace and order the material via their own libraries. Topics include: ventilation strategies, design and retrofit methods, calculation techniques, standards and regulations, measurement methods, indoor air quality and energy implications etc. Entries are based on articles and reports published in journals, internal publications and research reports, produced both by university departments and by building research institutions throughout the world. AIRBASE has grown and evolved over many years (1979 to present day, over 22000 references and 16000 documents available online). For most of the references, the full document is also available online.
Access to the publications is free of charge.
In this paper a proposal has been made for the identical testroom configuration, which should be used for the measurements and numerical simulations of the identical test cases.
In this paper information is provided about ways to model the boundary conditions near the radiator for use in the flow simulation program.
The objectives were a) to evaluate performance of air flow models in predicting air velocity, temperature and contaminant concentrations; b) to evaluate applicability of models as design tools; c) to produce guidelines for their use.
The scope of the task 2.2 is to provide an algorithm simulating the behaviour of the inhabitants with respect to the openings of doors and windows.
