Review on buoyancy-driven natural ventilation in an enclosure with various types of heat sources

This paper reviews indoor heat convection and buoyancy-driven natural ventilation in enclosed space with sources different forms such as point, line, plane, volume or combination of them. The thermal flow is driven by these accumulated the enclosure. Thermal plume evolves based on its dynamic law above conversely affected environment geometric structure. Therefore, thermal-driven flows restriction framework are both interest field ventilation. Based this fact, can be divided into two basic components which buoyant source stratification flow. Research analysis laws significance not only advances building technology but also further cognition effective solutions for current engineering practice.
