In this study, numerical simulation has been conducted to investigate dispersion of a pollutant released from a new furniture, a kind of Sick Building Syndrome (SBS). A sofa which generates formaldehyde is implemented by using an immersed boundary method. Large Eddy Simulation (LES) is employed to obtain time-dependent velocity and concentration fields. It is shown that the ventilation efficiency in this room can be improved by changing inlet angle of diffuser, even though other conditions still remain unchanged. Both active diffusion near a sofa and air flow pattern are important parameters to enhance the ventilation efficiency.

The thermal comfort of occupants is directly related to several environmental factors such as velocity of air flow, turbulence intensity and temperature distribution of indoor air. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the indoor air flow and temperature distribution in office area using under-floor air-conditioning system (UFAC System) based on the results from physical measurements and to perform a Computer Fluid Dynamics (CFD) under the same condition of inlet and outlet as field measurement. The results from the CFD simulation are similar to those from the field measurement. The results show that UFAC system is provide proper indoor condition for occupants.

The gas jet pumps serve to preduce a vacuum or can be used as gas jet compressors. These are operated on the same principle as a steam jet vacuum pump : in the driving nozzle the pressure energy of the motive medium is converted into the kinetic energy. In the diffuser the driving jet mixes with the suction medium and the kinetic energy is reconverted into the pressure enegy. The application fields of gas jet ejectors are the evacuation of siphoning installations, the elevation of liquids, the production of vacuum filters, the vacuum supporting airlift system, the evacuation of the suction line of centrifugal pumps and the ventilation of the dangerous gases to the atmosphere. The performance of gas jet ejector is influenced strongly to velocity coefficient of motive nozzle, the distance between the motive outlet to the diffuser inlet and the dimensions of diffuser. This study is performed for the computer aided design of gas jet ejectors in future. Through the present experiments, it is known that the velocity coefficient of the motive air nozzle ranges from 0.91 to 0.95 and the maximum efficiency of gas jet ejector is 24.6%.

본 연구는 CFD 해석을 이용하여 사각 천장형 루버 디퓨저의 토출각도와 토출 유량에 따른 실내 공기유동 특성에 관한 것이다. CFD 툴은 상용프로그램인 ANSYS 13.0의 CFX를 이용하였다. 연구에 사용된 디퓨저는 적은 유량에서도 충분한 도달거리를 확보할 수 있도록 모델링하였으며, 실내 크기는 $6{\times}6{\times}2.7m$로 디퓨저의 대각선 방향으로 원형 배기구를 모델링 하였다. 토출 공기의 체적유량은 5.1CMM, 7.4CMM이며, 디퓨저의 토출각도를 $30^{\circ}$에서부터 $60^{\circ}$까지 $10^{\circ}$씩 변화하여 실내의 유동특성에 대하여 고찰하였다.

The purpose of this paper is to obtain design method of air-distribution system. Air-distribution system is composed of blower, duct, diffusers and measuring equipment. The air-flow rate from each diffuser is not equal. The air-flow rate is calculated with the combined equations which are Bernoulli's equation, continuity equation and minor loss equations. Inlet condition and outlet condition are adapted in each duct system. Then square difference between function of maximum air-flow rate and minimum air-flow rate is used as an object function. Area of diffuser and velocity are established as constraints. To minimize the object function, the optimization method is used. After optimization the design variables are selected under satisfaction of constraints. The air-distribution system is calculated again with the result of optimized design variable. It is shown that the air-distribution system has the equal air-flow rate from diffusers.

This paper proposes a novel diffuser design for Diffuser Augmented Wind Turbines (DAWT) based on the blunt trailing edge airfoil AF300. Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulations are carried out to measure the performance of the AF300 diffuser against diffusers made with the shape of other high performance low wind speed airfoils. The results show that the proposed diffuser produces a greater air mass flow increase through the plane of the turbine than the other diffusers and it can be used to increase the performance of a horizontal axis wind turbine.

Room air flow and temperature distribution was numerically investigated where a PAC(personal air conditioning) system was installed. The calculated results were compared with those from experiments. The effects of the important operation parameters such as the air flow rate, velocity, and temperature at the diffuser on the thermal performance of the system were studied. The possibility of energy saving using the PAC system was verified from the results, It was shown that the warm air from the diffuser could not spread over the whole task area if the inlet temperature was too high.

본 연구는 차량용 리어 디퓨저의 시작 위치에 따른 주행 성능 변화를 분석하고자 하였다. 이를 위해 CATIA 3D 설계 프로그램을 이용하여 상용 SUV 차량을 참고하여 차량을 모델링하고 뒤 타이어를 기준으로 300, 400, 500 mm 떨어진 위치부터 리어 디퓨저가 시작되도록 설계했다. 그리고 유동 해석 프로그램인 Fluent를 이용해 차량 주행속도가 60km/h, 100km/h, 140km/h 일 경우를 조건으로 하여 유동해석 후 양력과 항력의 변화를 분석하고 공기의 유선 변화를 확인했다. 해석 결과, 리어 디퓨저는 시작 위치에 상관없이 디퓨저가 없는 경우에 비해 양력과 항력을 감소시켰다. 이는 리어 디퓨저가 있을 경우 공기가 차량 하면부를 지나 후면부로 빠져나올 때 발생하는 박리 현상을 억제하여 와류 현상을 감소시키기 때문이다. 또한 본 연구에서는 SP 400의 조건일 때 양력이 가장 작았고 양력 감소 효과도 가장 좋았기 때문에 주행 중 타이어의 접지력을 최대로 확보할 수 있어서 이 경우를 최적의 조건으로 결정하였다.

Experimental study was conducted to increase the oxygen transfer efficiency of air diffusers in clean water. By measuring the bubble size from the bubbly two-phase flow visualization with several air diffusers, the size of air bubbles near the top surface of aeration tank seems to be independent on the diffuser types. Considering design parameters for the better break-up of larger bubbles around the air diffusers, advanced conceptual air diffusers using nozzle-type throat showing the higher oxygen transfer efficiencies were made.
