Fast-growing broiler chickens, bred for meat, find it difficult to adapt to warm conditions during hot weather periods in an enclosed environment. They tend to change their behavioural and physiological mechanisms to survive. This study was carried out to evaluate the air velocity distributions within a sidewall inlet and roof exhaust ventilated broiler shed using computational fluid dynamics (CFD). The simulation was conducted using three turbulence models (standard, realizable, and SST ) to determine the best predictive model for the hot weather ventilation of the broiler shed under consideration. The results predicted by the turbulence models were validated with the field experimental results. It was discovered that the standard turbulence model predicted air velocity distributions, close to that of the air velocity distributions obtained during the experimental study except at the centre of the broiler shed where the CFD predicted higher air velocity. This shows that CFD could be adopted by Agricultural Engineers to create appropriate environments for animals before the structures are physically erected.

This study focuses on the performance of air conditioning design at the Dazhi Cultural Center and uses a computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulation to discuss the differences in wind velocity and ambient indoor temperature between all-zone air conditioning design and stratified air conditioning design. The results have strong implications for air conditioning design and can improve the indoor air quality of assembly halls.

AbstractNumerical simulation using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) method is one way of predicting airflow characteristics on the model. This method is widely used because it is relatively inexpensive and faster in getting desired results compared with performing direct testing. The correctness of a computational simulation output is highly dependent on the input and how it was processed. In this paper, simulation is done on Onera M6 Wing, to investigate the effect of a turbulence model’s application on the accuracy of the computational result. The choice of Onera M6 Wing as a simulation’s model is due to its extensive database of testing results from various wind tunnels in the world. Among Turbulence models used are Spalart-Allmaras, K-Epsilon, K-Omega, and SST.Keywords: CFD, fluent, Model, Turbulence, Onera M6, Spalart-Allmaras, K-Epsilon, K-Omega, SST.AbstraksSimulasi numerik dengan menggunakan metode Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) merupakan salah satu cara untuk memprediksi karakteristik suatu aliran udara yang terjadi pada model. Metode ini banyak digunakan karena sifatnya yang relatif murah dan cepat untuk mendapatkan hasil dibandingkan dengan melakukan pengujian langsung. Benar tidak hasil sebuah simulasi komputasi sangat tergantung pada inputan yang diberikan serta cara memproses data inputan tersebut. Pada tulisan ini dilakukan simulasi dengan menggunakan sayap onera M6 dengan tujuan untuk mengetahui pengaruh penggunaan model turbulensi terhadap keakuratan hasil komputasi. Pilihan sayap onera M6 sebagai model simulasi dikarenakan model tersebut sudah memiliki database hasil pengujian yang cukup lengkap dan sudah divalidasi dari berbagai terowongan angin di dunia. Model turbulensi yang digunakan diantaranya Spalart-Allmaras, K-Epsilon, K-Omega dan SST.Kata Kunci : CFD, fluent, Model, Turbulensi, Onera M6, Spalart-Allmaras, K-Epsilon, K-Omega, SST.

Honeycomb ceramic is the key component of the regenerative system. The numerical simulation was performed using FLUENT, a commercial computational fluid dynamics (CFD) code, to compare simulation results to the test data. The regenerative process of a honeycomb ceramic regenerator was simulated under different conditions. Experiments were carried out on honeycomb regenerators that are contained in a methane oxidation reactor. The calculated temperatures of flue gas inlet were compared with the ones measured. The tendency of the temperature is the same as the experiment.

The study of processes occurring in gas turbine combustor is an important part of engine design for achieving the required technical, operational, and environmental characteristics of the engine. During engine design process, both experimental and computational methods are used. The progress in numerical methods of modeling fourdimensional (space and time) physical phenomena and increasing of computation capacity allow application of complex computational fluid dynamics (CFD) methods for simulating such technical devices as the gas turbine combustor.
