A Simplified Method of Radiator to Improve the Simulation Speed of Room Temperature Distribution

EasyChair Preprint no. 4110

Abstract

Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) has become one of the important methods of indoor environmental analysis. Because the indoor environment of the building has the characteristics of large space and complex structure, the calculation amount of directly using CFD to simulate the in-door temperature distribution is so huge that the simulation efficiency is too low for practical application. Based on the shortcomings of the existing building environment simulation methods, Solidworks Flow Simulation and MATLAB are used to carry out research on indoor temperature distribution simulation methods. The overall treatment is equivalent to a constant heat source, which simplifies the heat dissipation model and avoids simulating complex flow patterns. Compared with traditional simulation methods,it can greatly improve simulation efficiency and model solving speed while ensuring simulation accuracy. The overall method is well sup-ported by the simulation results.

Keyphrases: Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD), Micro segment simplified, SolidWorks Flow Simulation, temperature distribution
