Assessment of Modeling Slatted Floor as Porous Media in Livestock Buildings in Two Ventilation Systems
نویسندگان
چکیده
This study investigates the effect of modeling the slatted floor as porous media on prediction of ammonia emissions and airflow patterns. Two approaches to determine the resistance coefficients of porous media modeling are adopted by using two geometries in CFD modeling. The results reveal that the ammonia emission with slatted floor modeled as actual size (SLM) is generally lower than the value with floor modeled as porous media (POM). Difference of air speed distribution close to the floor is also found between SLM and POM.

Lattice Boltzmann modeling of two component gas diffusion in solid oxide fuel cell
In recent years, the need for high efficiency and low emission power generation systems has made much attention to the use of fuel cell technology. The solid oxide fuel cells due to their high operating temperature (800 ℃ -1000 ℃) are suitable for power generation systems.Two-component gas flow (H2 and H2O) in the porous media of solid oxide fuel cell’s anode have been modeled via lattice Boltz...
متن کاملA Numerical Modeling for Natural Convection Heat Transfer in Porous Media With Generated Internal Heat Sources
In this paper a numerical method is used to study the unsteady state natural convection heat transfer within a confined porous media with uniform internal heat generation. The governing equations based on the Darcy model and Bossiness approximations are solved, using the finite difference Alternating Direction Implicit (ADI) method. The developed program was used to simulate natural convection ...
متن کاملInvestigation of the Progressive Collapse Potential in Steel Buildings with Composite Floor System
Abnormal loads due to natural events, implementation errors and some other issues can lead to occurrence of progressive collapse in structures. Most of the past researches consist of 2- Dimensional (2D) models of steel frames without consideration of the floor system effects, which reduces the accuracy of the modeling. While employing a 3-Dimensional (3D) model and modeling the concrete slab sy...
