REAL TIME AIRFLOW SIMULATION IN BUILDINGS

Real time flow simulation is crucial in emergency management in buildings, such as fire or accidentalrelease of chemical/biological agents. Proper measures can be taken to minimize casualties withcorrect and timely prediction of the spread of the fire or contaminants. Although the traditional CFDsimulation in buildings is accurate, it is too time consuming. Multizone flow modeling is fast, but itsaccuracy is poor.
