Numerical simulation and experimental validation of the ventilation system performance in a heated room.

ABSTRACT: The time spent by the occupant indoor the building is significant; therefore, the central objective of the major research was the evaluation of the thermal sensation for the existing people. This study examines the numerical simulation in a room containing a manikin sitting in front of a computer. The computational fluid dynamics (CFD) tools were considered using ANSYS Fluent 16.2 software. This software exploits the finite volume method that is based on the resolution of the Navier-Stokes equations. The distribution of the temperature, velocity, static pressure, turbulent kinetic energy, turbulent viscosity, and turbulent dissipation is tested in different planes and different directions to characterize the airflow indoor a heated room. Equally, the thermal comfort is examined by calculat
