Development and Application of a Ventilation System Based on Vertical Descendent Confluent Jets
This paper presents the development and application of a ventilation system based on vertical confluent jets. The thermal comfort and indoor air quality levels, Air Distribution Index and energy consumption are evaluated and discussed. The numerical study is carried out in a virtual chamber with dimensions of 4.502.552.50 m3. This chamber is equipped with six tables, twelve chairs, one outlet system and one confluents jets system, and is occupied with twelve virtual occupants. The inlet system has two horizontal 0.15 m diameter ducts, installed at a height of 1.8 m from the floor, which have consecutive holes in order to promote downward jets close to the side walls. The outlet system has six air ducts, located above the head of the occupants, connected to the ceiling area. The study was developed for three different airflow rates, considering winter conditions. When the airflow rate increases, indoor air quality improves, thermal comfort remains within an acceptable level and ADI improves slightly. ; publishedVersion
