Abstract
The ventilation system of apartments can be divided by supply and exhaust fan, supply fan and exhaust free and supply free and exhaust fan. Recently, the individual ventilation system and central ventilation system which is combined cooling system with duct system are applied to apartment ventilation system. The airflow pattern is affected by location of supply unit and exhaust unit in indoor. This study is to investigate the proper distance between supply unit and exhaust unit using CFD. As a result of this study, the proper distance between supply unit and exhaust unit could be suggested at the interval of 3 m in supply and exhaust fan system and 2.5 m in supply fan and exhaust free.
