A new method of cfd simulation of airflow chracteristics of swirling floor diffusers | 2003 | English
Air supply diffusers used in air-conditioning systems can be classified as ceiling diffusers, sidewall diffusers, floor diffusers, jet nozzles, and low velocity displacement diffusers.
Two dissimilar models capable of predicting the electrical and thermal performance of residential cogeneration fuel cell systems have been developed for use with the ESP-r building simulation program.
A study on the application of the radiant floor cooling system integrated with a dehumidification system | 2003 | English
When applying the radiant floor cooling system, it is important to prevent condensation on the floor surface. To solve this problem, a radiant floor cooling system integrated with the dehumidification system has been proposed and evaluated.
Statistical interpretation of the results of building simulation and its use in design decisions | 2003 | English
