  1. 1. A Ventilation Strategy Based on Confluent Jets : An Experimental and Numerical Study

    Author : Setareh Janbakhsh; Bahram Moshfegh; Alexander Zhivov; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Multiple interacting jets; round jets; confluent jets; wall jet; ventilation strategy; air distribution system; air supply device; ventilation performance; thermal comfort; energy-saving potential; measurement; numerical predictions; RANS turbulence models; renormalization group RNG k– ε ; realizable Re k– ε ; and shear stress transport SST k– ω ;

    Abstract : This study presents air distribution systems that are based on confluent jets; this system can be of interest for the establishment of indoor environments, to fulfill the goals of indoor climate and energy-efficient usage. The main objective of this study is to provide deeper understanding of the flow field development of a supply device that is designed based on wall confluent jets and to investigate the ventilation performance by experimental and numerical methods.

  2. 2. Experimental and numerical investigations of a ventilation strategy – impinging jet ventilation for an office environment

    Author : Huijuan Chen; Bahram Moshfegh; Mathias Cehlin; Darren Robinson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : Impinging jet ventilation; room air distribution; thermal comfort; ventilation performance; turbulence modelling; CFD;

    Abstract : A well-functioning, energy-efficient ventilation system is of vital importance to offices, not only to provide the kind of comfortable, healthy indoor environment necessary for the well-being and productive work performance of occupants, but also to reduce energy use in buildings and the associated impact of CO2 emissions on the environment. To achieve these goals impinging jet ventilation has been developed as an innovative ventilation concept. READ MORE

  3. 3. Energy efficiency and ventilation in Swedish industries barriers, simulation and control strategy

    Author : Patrik Rohdin; Bahram Moshfegh; Hazim Awbi; Magnus Karlsson; Alfred Moser; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : Industrial energy efficiency; Industrial ventilation; Barriers; Driving forces. CFD; TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIKVETENSKAP;

    Abstract : The energy issue is presently in focus worldwide. This is not only due to increasing environmental concern regarding energy related emissions, but also due to the trend of increasing energy prices. Energy usage in the industrial sector in Sweden today represents about one third of the national energy use. READ MORE

  4. 4. New methods for optimization of mechanical ventilation

    Author : Peter Kostic; Peter Frykholm; Anders Larsson; Johan Petersson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; mechanical ventilation; optoelectronic plethysmography; forced oscillation technique; laser interferometry; Anestesiologi och intensivvård; Anaesthesiology and Intensive Care;

    Abstract : Mechanical ventilation saves lives, but it is an intervention fraught with the potential for serious complications. Prevention of these complications has become the focus of research and critical care in the last twenty years. READ MORE

  5. 5. Influence of building envelope on indoor air quality: Field measurements, analysis, and method development related to indoor odors

    Author : Fredrik Domhagen; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; material emissions; VOC; odor; ventilation; indoor air quality;

    Abstract : The ventilation system should provide occupants with fresh air while removing excess pollutants from the building. However, increasing ventilation may inadvertently draw more pollutants into the occupant area or prove ineffective in altering emission rates from building materials and furnishings. READ MORE
