Laboratory Modelling of Tangential Air Supply System

Abstract

The international development of air and air conditioning technology has reached a new phase. The reasons for this can be searched in the design of new building structures and the rapid appearance of computer technology. At numerous Universities and research centres in the world efforts are being made so that each element of air technology systems should be measurable even in case of changed parameters. This latter aspect especially applies to one of the highlighted elements of air technology systems, which is the closed space. As it is known the only factor that rates the planned air conditioning technology is the characteristics of the microclimate in the occupied zones of spaces. A long-standing ambition of the designers seems to be accomplished if the spatial distribution of the characteristics of airspeed, temperature and sense of heat can already be defined in the phase of planning. Our department has joined this international research by undertaking the task of developing a method that supports the design of the occupied zones.
