Abstract The paper presents the application of CFD software for simulating conditions that prevail inside air distributor vehicle's ventilation system with aim increasing efficiency distributor. simulation results were validated based on experimental data found in literature. Based simulation, geometry was optimized reducing pressure drop through system. It optimizing to some extent can provide...

In Brazil, increasing air pollution in urban areas has led to a rise in respiratory diseases among children and the elderly and has also been the main cause of hospital admissions. This study aims to evaluate the air pollution levels in Vitória, capital of Espírito Santo State, Brazil, in comparison to Brazilian legislation and recent World Health Organization (WHO) guidelines, analyzing the sp...

The using of double heat pipe based heat exchanger (HPHX) in a conventional fully fresh air air-conditioning (AC) system was examined in the present study. The fabricated HPHXs were tested under the actual conditions and the measured data were used to study the performance of the existing AC system (System A) and AC system equipped with the double HPHX (System B) for a yearly operation through ...

 In the preset study, the performance of a solar assisted heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) system in an operating theater building was studied. The yearly performances of the existing HVAC system and the system with the added solar collectors were simulated in terms of energy consumption and provided air conditions using a transient system simulation software (TRNSYS). In t...

In this work the effects of various methods of agitation on the properties of electroless Ni-P-MoS2 composite coatings were investigated. Magnetic stirring as well as purging the solution with gas (Air, Oxygen, Nitrogen) were used. Plating rate, chemical composition, MoS2 distribution, and hardness of the deposit were measured. Topography of coating was studied with metallography and scanning e...

In this paper, a data-based mechanistic modelling approach was developed to real time monitoring and online adaptive control of three-dimensional temperature distribution in both an individual biological product and in a given movement. Boxes of potatoes were used as biological material. During the experiments, step inputs on an air inlet temperature were applied while airspace and potatoes tem...

Optimum design of air condition in surgical operating theatres requires more careful and refined control of flow and temperature characteristics to achieve sterile and comfort conditions. The present work is devoted to analyze the performance of HVAC system design in practical operating theatre in 1200-beds of Egyptian modern teaching hospital. The present experimental program comprises field m...

Data centers have become ubiquitous in the last few years in an attempt to keep pace with the processing and storage needs of the Internet and cloud computing. The steady growth in the heat densities of IT servers leads to a rise in the energy needed to cool them, and constitutes approximately 40% of the power consumed by data centers. However, many data centers feature redundant air conditioni...
