Based on K ε two equation turbulence model,the air distribution and contamination field under different conditions was numerically simulated in a vector flow cleanroom.Special mesh system was introduced to deal with the quarter circle shaped inlets.Model experiments were also made.By analysis of numerical as well as experimental results,we made some predictions about flow characteristics,contaminant control effect and ventilation performance of this energy saving cleanroom.It has been proved that the vector flow can meet class 100 of Fed. St.with 13 to 12 conventional air change per hour,and reduce layer height and simplify air clean system.
In rebuilding Tianjin Metro, numerical simulations are performed to evaluate the original design of the ventilation system of Southwest Station and a new system is given to optimize the velocity and temperature fields at the station. Field measurements are conducted to validate the turbulence model and acquire boundary conditions. The simulation result tallies with testing data on the sport that is found that two-equation turbulence model is acceptable in simulating complex flow at the station. A method of simplifying the simulation of the transient flow at the station into steady flow is used and the validation criterion for this simulation is also given.
