Main ContribExamples/AirConditionedRoom

Valid versions:

1 Short description

This turorial case analyzes thermal flow in air-conditioned room. Also it compares CFD result with experimental result.

Incompressible thermal flow solver boussinesqBuoyantSimpleFoam is required to run this tutorial. Also gnuplot is required for plotting the result.

2 Usage

To run this tutorial case, just type:

 % ./Allrun

After the execution it would makes figures 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
