NUMERICAL SIMULATION OF AIR VELOCITY AND TEMPERATURE DISTRIBUTION INSIDE A TWO DIMENSIONAL OFFICE ROOM

Abstract

A two dimensional turbulence (SST, k-) model is used to predict the distribution of air velocity and temperature in a 2-D office room, containing one person and office furniture for two ventilation conditions. This study use a commercial CFD code FLUENT (version 6.3) for solving the Navier Stocks, energy and turbulence equations using finite volume techniques. The results were presented as velocity vectors with quantitative velocity and temperature distribution. The result can be divided into two parts, First part compared with published result and gives good theoretical agreement, the second part was taken at boundary conditions (Vin, Tin and Twall) according to the Iraqi environmental condition depend on the Iraqi cods of cooling 2012.
