Abstract

Language:

The air circulation inside an enclosure with multiple openings and local heat sources was studied by means of a mathematical model using the commercial CFD program FLOW 3D. The results of the standard K-E turbulence model and the differential Reynolds flux turbulence model were compared to experimental data, which were obtained from a physical model. The flow pattern and the temperature distribution predicted by the standard K-E turbulence model were in fair agreement with the experimental data. The predictions of the differential Reynolds flux turbulence model were in better agreement with the experimental data for the thermal plumes, but were in poor agreement near the floor. The results of the differential Reynolds flux turbulence model are encouraging but should be interpreted with care in the study of turbulent mixed convection problems such as the ventilation in aluminum smelters.
