Floor-supply Displacement Ventilation for Workshops
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper reported the investigation of the performance of floor-supply displacement ventilation with swirl diffusers or perforated panels under a high cooling load (nearly 90W/m). The experiment was carried out in a full-scale environmental chamber to obtain reliable data on the floor-supply displacement ventilation for the validation of a computational-fluid-dynamics (CFD) program. Numerical simulations using CFD program were to evaluate the performance of the system for a large workshop. The impacts of several parameters, such as the air change rate, number of diffusers, diffuser location, occupant location, furniture arrangement, partition location, and arrangement of exhausts, on the indoor environment were investigated based on the thermal comfort level and indoor air quality. This study ranked the impacts of these parameters on indoor environment.

Many investigations have recently been performed on return vent height and indicate that having 1.3 m distance from the floor is the optimized height for it. In this article, the effect of distance between opening diffuser and return vent on air quality, thermal comfort and energy saving was investigated. According to the results, by increasing the distance between opening and return vent up to...
متن کاملComparison of airflow and contaminant distributions in rooms with traditional displacement ventilation and under-floor air distribution systems
Traditional displacement ventilation (TDV) and under-floor air distribution (UFAD) systems have been used widely because they create better indoor air quality. Many previous studies have compared the TDV or UFAD systems with mixing ventilation systems. This study first compared experimentally the TDV with UFAD systems that use four different diffusers (perforated TDV diffusers, swirl diffusers,...
