Study of Radial Wall Jets from Ceiling Diffusers at Variable Air Volume

open access: yesEnergies, 2021
The knowledge of the air velocity distribution in the supply jets is essential when designing ventilation and air conditioning systems. In this study, we tested and analyzed the velocity distributions in the radial wall jets—these jets are commonly used ...

Investigation of unsteady heat transfer process in an one‐cell building

open access: yesJournal of Civil Engineering and Management, 2006
All energy processes in buildings are usually unsteady, ie time dependent. But mostly the unsteady factors influence is not taken into consideration for energy demands, microclimate changes estimating. Therefore the practical observations and theoretical

Numerical Analysis of the Energy Consumption of Ventilation Processes in the School Swimming Pool

open access: yesEnergies, 2021
Ventilation of an indoor swimming pool is a very energy consuming process. This is a result of, among other things the required high value of the ventilation air volume flow rate, calculated on the basis of the moisture gains in the facility.

Twenty first century standards for thermal comfort : fostering low carbon building design and operation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Nearly 50% of energy consumed in the developed world is consumed in buildings. Despite regulation intent, many new buildings are energy profligate. Thermal comfort standards are partly responsible for this increase in consumption. In this volume, Roaf et
