چکیده

this paper is an attempt to numerical modeling and experimental study of air flow in the yazdi wind-towers. wind towers has been known as one of the most effective climatic elements in iranian traditional architecture. this paper is an attempt to evaluating yazdi wind-tower to discussion the two main questions: 1. what is the role of orientation of wind-towers span, regarding to climate and height of it, in yazdi wind-tower? 2. how isthe performance of yazdi wind tower in natural ventilation and air flow in the different seasons of the year? computer modeling and simulation methods and logical reasoning have been applied in this article, and study of library resources was another part of research.thus, first, the wind-tower has been modeled in computer environment, then after appling the climatic characterize, final simulation figures and diagrams have been extracted. results indicate that increasing of the cooling power and optimized efficiency are one of the most important principles of wind-tower design process, and yazdi wind-towers has mentioned this fact through 4 seasons of the year. by validate computer modeling and simulation, this paper clarify that iranian traditional ventilation systems has many undiscovered secrets and facts, which need further investigations. this article indicates that natural tactics, which have been applied in the traditional architecture of iran, can be mentioned as methods to using this valuable heritage in contemporary architecture.

Experimental and numerical study of natural ventilation in four-sided wind tower traps

In the past, wind towers were applied as the main architectural part of building construction in the desert areas of Iran. These almost high structures were used as cooling load suppliers at residential buildings. In the present study, the effect of symmetric four-sided wind tower in flow induction to the bottom space has been analysed by using a wind tunnel and numerical simulations. In the nu...

Experimental Study and Numerical Modeling of CO2 Bio-Fixation in a Continues Photobioreactor

A dynamic numerical model was developed to predict the biomass concentration, pH, and carbon dioxide fixation rate in the continuous culture of cyanobacteria in a photobioreactor. The model is based on the growth rate equation of microalgae combined with mass transfer equations for gas and liquid phases in the photobioreactor as well as thermodynamic equilibrium of inorganic carbon ions in the ...

Numerical modeling of the wind flow over a transverse dune

Transverse dunes, which form under unidirectional winds and have fixed profile in the direction perpendicular to the wind, occur on all celestial objects of our solar system where dunes have been detected. Here we perform a numerical study of the average turbulent wind flow over a transverse dune by means of computational fluid dynamics simulations. We find that the length of the zone of recirc...

Experimental Study and Three-Dimensional Numerical Flow Simulation in a Centrifugal Pump when Handling Viscous Fluids

In this paper the centrifugal pump performances are tested when handling water and viscous oils as Newtonian fluids. Also, this paper shows a numerical simulation of the three-dimensional fluid flow inside a centrifugal pump. For these numerical simulations the SIMPLEC algorithm is used for solving governing equations of incompressible viscous/turbulent flows through the pump. The k-ε turbulenc...
