Main ContribExamples/AirConditionedRoom
1 Short description
This turorial case analyzes thermal flow in air-conditioned room. It also compares CFD result with experimental result.
2 Usage
If you use fixed heat flux B.C. instead of place heat source, you need to modify the makeInit script before run.
To run this tutorial case automatically, just type:
./Allrun
After the execution it will makes figures as listed below.
- res.eps - Initial residual
- profileT.eps - Vertical profile of temperature
- profileU.eps - Vertical profile of velocity
- profilek.eps - Vertical profile of turbulent kinetic energy
To clean all files this tutorial makes, just type:
./Allclean

- AirConditionedRoom-20080819.tar.gz The current version
- AirConditionedRoom-20080813.tar.gz
Incompressible thermal flow solver boussinesqBuoyantSimpleFoam and gnuplot are required to run this tutorial.
If you use fixed heat flux B.C. instead of place heat source you also need install wallHeatFlux library.
