Indoor and outdoor airflow simulation by a zero equation turbulence model.

In order to simulate indoor air distribution and airflow around buildings quickly and accurately by CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) technique, a new zero-equation turbulence model and momentum method for inlet boundary condition are adopted. The new version of STACH-3, a three-dimensional CFD software is developed based on these. An example for outdoor airflow around an isolated building is given as well. For those high-density buildings with complex geometry, the TSM (Two Step Method) is proposed.
