Air Conditioning of a Room with a Heat Source CFD Simulation, ANSYS Fluent
In this project, the air conditioning of a room with a cylinder as a heat source is simulated using ANSYS Fluent software. We perform this CFD project and investigate it by CFD analysis.
The current model is designed in three dimensions using Design Modeler software. The model consists of a room in the shape of a rectangular cube with three square sections for the air inlet on its roof and two rectangular sections for the air outlet on its side walls.
The length and width of the room are 10 m and 3 m, respectively, and its height is equal to 2.7 m. A cylindrical heat source is also used inside the room. The meshing of this project has been done with ANSYS Meshing software. The element number is 98924.
Heat Source Methodology
The present problem simulates the airflow inside a room and the air conditioning process by ANSYS Fluent software. There are three sections for the entry of fresh air on the roof of the room; So that the airflow enters the room's interior with a speed equal to 0.4 m/s and at a temperature equal to 295 K.
On the side walls of the room, there are two sections for the air flow outlet, which have a pressure equivalent to atmospheric pressure. The side walls and ceiling of the room also have a thermal insulation boundary condition.
A cylindrical heat source made of aluminum is placed inside the room, so this heat source has a constant temperature equal to 353 K. Moreover, the standard k-epsilon model is enabled to solve turbulent fluid equations.
Heat Source Conclusion
At the end of the solution process, two-dimensional and three-dimensional contours related to pressure, velocity, and temperature are obtained. Also, velocity vectors are obtained in two-dimensional and three-dimensional modes.
For instance, as seen in the temperature contour, the heat source has caused the temperature of the surrounding air to increase.
